About Me



BIO:
Feathergun is a melodic rock band. Blending elements of classic rock and their previous day jobs, Feathergun have left their respective cubicles to serve you up a tasty helping of hooks. Armed with undeniably accessible songcraft and bitter to sweet serenades, Chicago based Feathergun thrusts forward with a sonic assault of melodic goodness that lusts for rock stardom. File under 'Cubicle Rock' and 'Power Point Pop', a pleasantly familiar yet unique sound, inspired by days spent working in the corporate world. This is arena rock pumping on through your office stereos, so flash your devil horns and get ready to sing along...

Feathergun are currently recording a brand new album at Chicago's Wall to Wall with Dan Deitrich (Vsparks, the Redwalls, the Changes, Andrew Bird, Sleeper Car).

Miro shares with us one of his new songs...

For any indie label reading this right now, we sound like Randy California and Elvis Costello's love child.

For any major label or publisher reading this right now, we sound like we'll make you a lot of money, especially if you use our tracks as ringtones.

For anyone else reading this, we sound like a cross between motorcycle engines and rock & roll. We're working on a full length record and if you're a friend on here, you will know when it's done...
