mississippi queen, you taught me everything

About Me

Since our Sept. 2001 debut, Solo Flyer has drawn from the never ending supply of ridiculousness that is our Cleveland, OH surroundings; creating fist-pumping rock-n-roller anthems, foot-tappin' dance numbers and tear-jerking ballads. When we play live, we sweat alot. Sometimes we open for the big boys and girls (Ash, Vendetta Red, The Weakerthans, Capitol Years, Moth, The High Strung, Off By One, The Vibrators, Brandtson, Gil Mantera's Party Dream). We toured with Disengage & Party of Helicopters in 2003; it was groovy. There’s a chance you may be able to tell we were raised on generous portions of Brit-Pop, American classic rock and side servings of punk & indie rock. Founding members Matt Jauch & Don Tyler cut their teeth in Chalkline, a mid/late 90’s emo/hardcore group with varying degrees of success, so that like gives us mad cred and we coulda parlayed that shit into being an "ex-members of" band, but that gets annoying! Sold?....................................................... ...................................................ps: we promise we won't post lame bulletins ordering you to look at our new pics and begging you to comment on them, nor will we post surveys or bulletins proclaiming that "I'm bored". Just listen to the songs and comment if you'd like. We've got a new 11-song CD for sale and we'd also luv to come rock your town. Enjoy the remainder of your Myspace viewing experience.......................................aol inst. mess: billy sawdust
