The Bio
Over the course of a decade and several releases, Stellarscope has developed a sound architecture that is constantly evolving. Formed in the mid-90's, Stellarscope has the rare ability to combine quality space-pop and sonically charged experimentation.
Influenced by music ranging from classic rock, progressive rock, punk rock, psychedelic rock to shoegaze, modern rock, and alternative; they have an innate ability to create textured soundscapes that border on the psychedelic with emphasis in songwriting and expansion.
They have consistently played the East Coast of the USA & Canada for many years and have released several full-lengths, EPs, and they have also participate in various world wide compilations and tribute albums.
