SLEEPRUNNER

Just another hard rock power trio?

About Me


Sleeprunner, born in the late summer of 2005, has gone through a few line up changes only to rest with the current 3 good friends. Each member shares the same passion and respect for the music that we listen to and create. We've been influenced by every musician, band, artist, etc., be it good or bad, hard and heavy or soft and delicate, serious and urgent or comical and unexplicable. We attempt to translate our lives, perceptions, thoughts, and emotions through a few instruments, electronics, and microphones.
Where this would seem the time and place to woo you, the reader, with enticing metaphors and worn out adjectives about our music and us individually, we'd prefer to leave the thesaurus hunting duties to the press. Without sounding pretentious, we hope listeners will have an open mind and an interest to hear something a little different.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 5/17/2005
Band Website: sleeprunner.com
Band Members: Bill Galatis - Vocals/Guitars
Mark Sexton - Percussion
Chris Cleveland - Bass
Influences: Art, life, cloudy days, sunny skies, and everything in between.
Sounds Like: "I am looking for things that are unlikely. Rhythmic events that are unlikely. Melodic events that are unlikely. You've already heard all of the good licks that all the good players play. You've already heard every pentatonic and chromatic scales there ever were. You've heard the Aeolian mode played with a muted palm of the hand. You have heard all the clean and accurate playing, and all the nice bent notes. You have heard it all. I don't give a shit about that stuff. I want to play what's on my mind." - Frank Zappa
Type of Label: None
