About Me

Bother is a Hard Rock band that was re-formed in 2007 in Charlotte, NC. Their musical style could be compared to bands like Alice In Chains and Staind. The group consists of Sean McKnight on Lead Vocals; David Staples on Guitars; Matt Zawila on Bass; and Luis Castrillon on Drums.

Having originally formed in the mid-90’s. They have re-united to create their breakthrough new album, “Bothered”. To help them accomplish this they have enlisted the engineering skills of the renowned production team of Jimm Mosher & Alan Grossman at Hit Music Inc. Bother recently finished in the Top Ten in an International online music video competition and won praise from notable industry critics:

Steve Hochman , Los Angeles Times, AOL Spinner, California Report

“…a stand-out effort at developing a distinct voice and approach, and bonus points for some sonics that go off the normal template…”

Aaron Burgess , Spin, Revolver, Alternative Press, The Onion AV Club, Harp

“… I really like the soulful, layered vocals … and I'm digging the deceptive simplicity of the riffing…the guitar work is progressive and complex… . ”

Gary Graff , New York Times, Billboard, Revolver

“… This is, hands down, very cool … particularly the mood, which this (music) has in spades. It's hypnotic in a good way, with instrumentation that nicely accents the verbal flow… . ”

The main focus of the band at this time is working on their forthcoming CD and offering it for sale to eager listeners around the world. Bother is wholly committed to producing the best possible recording and with this in mind will set the release date accordingly.
