"Not sure what you are hearing as you play back all these beautiful layers of sound and then you hear the vocals come in? Do you say "awesome"? Dead Stick Landing can play with the best of them, and at least the foundation to write with the best of them is there." -Atlantis music Conference 2007 Listening Committee
Dead Stick Landing is a technically-minded power trio based in Athens, Georgia that incorporates an eclectic blend of musical genres into a captivating mix of well thought out and engaging original rock songs. Their songs span the spectrum from hula hooping to head banging.

The band draws influence from many genres ranging from 90's alternative like Ween, Primus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, 311, Smashing Pumpkins, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden and Faith No More; to classic rock like Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa, Led Zeppelin, The Police, and the Talking Heads; to prog rock like King Crimson, Rush, Pink Floyd, Tool, and Porcupine Tree; to jazz fusion like the Flecktones, Weather Report, and Return to Forever; to jambands like Phish, Govt Mule, Widespread Panic, moe., and Umphrey’s McGee.
