Formed in the summer of 2006. Stitch Rivet was the result of former original guitarist of the rock band Manna(Wick,T-bone) with Gene Booth taking the bow as the lead singer. Within months the drummer, Nat Lewis, joined the group. Several bass players later, Kevin Allen filled the void and solidified the band.
Original music flowed freely without effort. The group instantly grabbed the attention of all seasoned musical veterans around. With an original style that cannot easily be defined and the abundance of musical hooks, Stitch Rivet is rapidly gathering a huge following which includes many of the local bands as 'fans' as well as the general audience.
The band is currently working on a full length album to be released in the fall of 2007. Unlike many albums this album is already being requested by many radio stations. Singles are being leaked out before the album is even finished. And an overview of the album leaves the listener confused as to which song will be the first #1 hit.
Stitch Rivet is without question the 'Next Big Thing'. Listening is the proof, and live...they are even better. Few bands today produce a live performance which rivals their studio work. This is one of those bands.
