About Me


Boston-based Stepanian offers songs that are accessible enough to be instantly appealing, but original enough to be genuinely unique. Their deft blend of catchy melodies, instrumental virtuosity, and tasty harmonies—all combined with thoughtful and expressive lyrics—is displayed on their 2005 Autumn She Leaves and just-released Wait Out The Rain CDs. In addition to playing their own sellout shows, Stepanian has opened for Maroon 5, Jason Mraz, Robert Randolph & The Family Band, and Rusted Root.
Stepanian Press Clippings
"Famously Sweet: If Jason Mraz were a band instead of one man, he might sound like Stepanian" -Meredith Goldsten- Boston Globe-
"Stepanian shows off the fine art of crafting hits." -John Black, Boston NOW-
"Effervescent melodies and meandering saxophone lend the band's music a jammy pop feel..." -Eric R. Danton, Hartford Courant-
"Perfectly polished, bouyant softrock nuggets, minus the schmaltz ... consider it a guilty pleasure" -The Metro, Boston-
