STATIC UNION

About Me

Static Union evolved over the course of ten years to become a modern, distorted, catchy-yet-deep rock band with a soul. Raised on the passion of apathy that stemmed from the grunge generation, Static Union fused the power chords of Nirvana with the attitude and literacy of Tool and Bright Eyes. Their message of disenchantment has been photographed on two studio efforts, one live c.d. and one recorded practice session. Soon there will be a 17 song "box set" available. For those of you who want to hear more from these guys, Brad and West are writing the first album with The Alchemy Project as we speak.

Any of you guys ever head Bob Dylan's "Song to Woody"? It's sort of his tribute to his hero, Woody Guthrie. Dylan deserves a song like that for himself. Song for Bob Dylan / With Bob on Our Side 1st ...
