Sleet

Bio pulled from the Artist Direct website
After playing to packed out, crowd surfing, sing along crowds in Kalamazoo MI the members of Sleet decided to relocate to the entertainment Mecca of sunny Los Angeles. Sleet combines layers of dynamic guitar hooks and melodies over an action packed rhythm section to create a superb suspension of sound. The melodic, and subtle harmonies of the vocals invite the listener inspiring melancholy memories. The music of Sleet embodies the cold solemn winters of Kalamazoo mixed with the warm busy nights of Los Angeles. Sleet.s first CD available in stores now was recorded in Kalamazoo by Mike Roche at Broadside studios and then was mastered in Los Angeles by John Golden. The CD is a six song EP demonstrating a wide variety of pop alternative rock songs. Sleet's influences range anywhere from Peter Gabriel, to Catherine Wheel, Sunny Day Real Estate, to Shudder to think, Fugazi, Heatmiser, to jazz and punk. The members of Sleet have been influenced by many different musical genres to create this unique and inviting sound.

I'm glad I had a chance to see them a few times. The EP is still in rotation in my cd player.
