bio:
two brothers from Cleveland move to Denver to start a band. joined by their close friends Ben Haley and Mike Ayars, Patrick and Nathan Meese create a musical act of the same name: MEESE. together they write heart felt songs. songs that are carried by keyboards and guitars. songs that are garnished with electronic beats and tones. melodies that can hook any listener and instrumentation that is different and unique. so the buzz begins.
in time they are voted best pop band in their hometown of Denver. they begin selling out theaters. their infectious single 'the start of it' begins to snowball. they begin headlining their own tours, as well as touring with acts like the fray, paramore, phantom planet, sparta, and straylight run. they sign to atlantic records in the fall of 2007. this is the start of it.

press:
"there’s a dynamic power to meese and its music. the Denver band’s earnest pop songs, alternating between synth and guitar sounds, obviously come from a place of deep conviction — in themselves, in their potential and in things beyond this world."
-ricardo baca, denver post
"meese might inherit the earth."
-dave herrera, westword magazine
"another amazing Denver band who is poised for big things with their distinctive, catchy brand of melodic rock."
-performing songwriter
"meese will be a household name soon."
-tim towner, the daily chorus.com
