Biography
It is a fine line between witty and pretentious. It is amazing
that Piebald is able to walk the former with, what seems like,
great ease. You can easily see why Piebald has become one of the
most popular cult indie bands around today. They can make an immediate
switch from sarcasm to intelligent or heart-felt, and they do
it perfectly. This stylistic uniqueness that people have come
to know and love, mixes so well with their catchy hooks and driven
beats.
The Piebald story is far too long to put on one page but some
of the important information is as follows. Formed while still
in high school Piebald has been together for 7 or 8 years now.
For the first few years Piebald was a tough pill to swallow but
the band has finally created their sound. Intelligent Indierock
is a way to describe Piebald. Some of the bands they have toured
with and fit in the fans of category would be Saves The Day, New
Found Glory & Jimmy Eat World. Piebald have the potential to be
the "next big thing" all the keys to a successful band are at
their disposal. WFNX, Boston's Commercial Alternative Radio Station
describes Piebald as "what Weezer SHOULD have evolved into.."
After over a year away from the studio, Piebald has just completed
their greatest effort to date, their third LP, "We Are The Only
Friends We Have" Coupled with legendary mega-producer Paul Kolderie
(Radiohead, The Pixies, Morphine, Hole) the band holed up for
an entire month in Bostonıs elite Q Division Studios tracking
miles of tape with everything from bongos to trumpets to forty
screaming six year-old children. Front man Travis Shettel said
about the record, ³We have finally created the album weıve always
wanted to. Every time we go into the studio we have these huge
incredible ideas and they just never pan out due to time or constraints
within a small studio. This time, with Paul, every idea we had
was possible. And the outcome is something we are all so proud
of.
