The Nameless Faceless is a four-member band based out of Peterborough and Toronto, Ontario. Like any unique band their sound is hard to describe, but terms like folk-rock, neo-alternative rock and psychedelic blues have been used to describe the band. Classic influences such as Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and Pink Floyd combine with more modern influences like Radiohead, Outkast, Smashing Pumpkins, and Wilco to help shape the sound of their songs.
The music of The Nameless Faceless originated when Stevie and Shaun began experimenting with modern recording techniques and VSTinstruments to create traditional rock songs with a distinctive twist. With Stevie's emotional vocals and Shaun's collage of experimental instruments, the first Nameless Faceless album, Ribbon Blue, was born.
Buzz around Ribbon Blue quickly led to requests for live shows, creating the need for more members to help bring this album to life. The addition of Jeremy and Steve morphed the sound of the band into something even more distinguishing, and has allowed the band to thrive on stage as much as on record.
The band's second album, Be In, was released in 2005 and has been critically acclaimed as one of the best indie alternative albums of the year. After completing a modest tour schedule, The Nameless Faceless have jumped back into the studio to record their third album, Virtues & Vices, which is scheduled for release in early 2007.
