As you may already know, Stokeswood is a killer electroacoustic rock band from Atlanta. They were essentially unknown in Miami one year ago. After a steadfast tour commitment, they now have a huge fan base here and in New York City. Stokeswood holds residencies and has played at some of South Beach’s most exclusive spots like the W South Beach, The Florida Room at Delano, Vagabond, The Standard, The Stage, Bardot, The Betsy Hotel, etc. The band also headlined the New Year’s Eve celebration at the W Montreal this year. In NYC, Stokeswood plays many live music hotspots like Brooklyn Bowl and Ella Lounge, as well as at high-end hotels like the Royalton and Salon Millesime at the Carlton. This summer, Stokeswood embarks on its “Manifest Destiny Tour,” which begins with the EMU Music Festival July 4th weekend in Snowmass Village, CO.
Atlanta-based electroacoustic band, Stokeswood, was formed in 2004 by lead vocalist and acoustic guitar player, Adam Patterson, and lead electric guitarist, Mark Godwin. The five-piece also comprises a drummer, keyboardist, and bass player. Stokeswood’s independently released debut album, Carassia (2009), is like a sonic excursion between the lines of a poet’s story-telling prowess. Thoughtful introspection on the human condition is amplified and challenged by the layered accents of electroacoustic guitars, pianos, synths, strings and drums. The soulful and captivating vocals of Patterson carry each melody flawlessly through the rhythms and musical harmonies of each track. From start to finish, the album sparkles with intelligent musicality and impressive originality. Their songs are layered and euphonious with stimulating idiosyncrasies. Stokeswood’s sophomore album, “In the Field of the Vibrations,†showcases a vocal-centric aesthetic and an array of synthesizers and guitars that are illuminated by infectious dance beats. The evolution from jam to joyfully danceable was a natural progression over the course of the past year in the studio with Justin Mullinix of Generator Sound Studios in Atlanta. Protégé to Billy Hume, Mullinix has been dubbed the “Wonderboy of Indie Rock†for his eclectic ear and ability to cultivate a band’s sound. The new album is slated for release in May 2011.
