Kings of this Year | New CD

About Me


Milford, Connecticut’s SATURDAY MATINEE combines the pop sensibility, and melodic catchiness of The Starting Line combined with the power and grandiosity of The All American Rejects, creating radio-ready Pop Rock for the masses. Originally formed by life-long friends Russell Lyman (guitar/vocals), Bill Laudenslager (Bass/Vocals), Pat Kish (guitar/vocals), and Ant Mastro (Drums/Keys), SATURDAY MATINEE performs together with a tightness that comes only from sharing the stage with friends who have grown up playing shows together, benefits, radio plays, touring, touring and more touring. Inspired by a shared passion for music and for rocking a live crowd, SATURDAY MATINEE recorded their first CD in 2004. Initially selling almost a thousand units out of the trunks of their cars, fans just couldn’t seem to get enough. Local shows soon led to dates booked out of state (NJ, NH, MA, and NY), and SATURDAY MATINEE watched as their fan-base grow and grow with each performance. Their second release was a full length CD, “Kings of this Year” featuring 14 original songs from the band, which took over six months to finish. After touring the summer with this CD the band yet again went back into the studio to start a Christmas E.P. CD that contained 4 covers songs and 1 original by the band. The band has not stopped with their flow yet, with booking their own tours, and no help from a label this band is self made. Plans look big for SATURDAY MATINEE in 08, they are to release a split CD with another CT band with some new material that reflects the significant musical growth that had resulted from playing countless gigs and sharing the stage with national acts such as, New found glory, Rookie of the Year, Angels and Airwaves, Quitedrive, and many more. Be sure to catch SATURDAY MATINEE when they come to a town near you and be sure to listen and pick up some of their music at some of the following websites. www.saturdaymatineerocks.com, www.myspace.com/saturdaymatinee, www.interpunk.com, www.itunes.com, and www.snocap.com
