Description:
Best described as knock down, drag out, dirty, MF'er, original American rock and roll band. We made paid our dues opening up for RCA Recording artist SilverTide for over a year in and around the tri-state area. (2001-2002) We were fortunate enough to tour Europe in the Fall of 2002, and missed signing our own major label recording agreement by the skin of our teeth. We returned home undeterred. We regrouped and hired some different musicians. 2003 was more of a rebuilding year for us but in 2004 we went for the throat. January 2004 found us performing the Abilene on South Street for maybe 25 people if we were lucky once a month. The summer of 2004 took us to the West Coast for a mini-tour. That was so successful we returned to the West Coast in 2004 to tour in support of our "Nothing to Save" E.P. The end of 2004 found us selling out the Abilene (on South Street) twice a month, and now in 2005 we plan on more of the same. Currently we are finally in negotiations with some labels. A few minor, and two majors. We are currently hammering out which entertainment attorney to sign with and if nothing comes out of these discussions in a timely fashion, we'll be returning to the studio in the spring to record some new material. (on our own dime)


Band Members:
Comprised of five kindred spirits that are as diverse as they are alike, StarSkream ignites the senses with sonically pleasing anthems guaranteed to move your soul. From 1998 through late 2000 the group toured heavily, which included several headlining performances at the legendary C.B.G.B’s during their East Coast Tour. In 2002 the toured the United Kingdom. The live show is explosive, with intensity reminiscent of rock’s glorious past and unpredictable future.

This Philadelphia based quintet is led by front man Vex X, whose passionate and soaring vocals provide the perfect vehicle for his thoughtful and sometimes haunting lyrics that echo the tribulations of modern relationships. The blistering guitar hooks are provided courtesy of Sam, who combines his raw ambition for playing with relentless energy, producing the signature StarSkream sound. Complimenting Sam is charismatic rhythm guitarist Kenny Wiegman, who provides an energetic spark that adds the depth and fullness to the bands compelling music. The backbone of the band without a doubt lies within the rhythm section, anchored by bass prodigy Patric Brennan and powerhouse soul and rock drummer Okwa-Andrew. Together, their talents create a metronome – like accuracy that every band strives to achieve.
