Downstait

Quote:

Young, powerful, and entertaining, Downstait is a band that holds nothing back, either in the studio or on the stage. Their songwriting reflects talent and ability beyond their years and is a unique blend of the best of modern hard rock… the thunder of Godsmack and Sevendust… the melodies of Linkin Park and Breaking Benjamin… all tied together by Daren Call and Sean Arata on vocals. With an average age of barely 20 yrs old, Downstait has been rumbling under the surface of Fort Wayne, Indiana’s music scene since 2002.

The band has become the opener of choice for national acts playing Fort Wayne’s premier venue, Piere’s. They have shared the stage and toured with Ra, Rev Theory, Drowning Pool, Pop Evil, Queensrÿche, Saliva, Skid Row, 10 Years and others. They are the hometown favorite and rightfully so. Selling over 5000 CD’s by themselves, they are a band with real viability. WBYR even had the band play their “Bear On the Square” event as an unsigned act, normally reserved for national acts.

2009 was a big year for Downstait. Signed to Sahaj’s label SMR and with 6 songs featured on ESPN’s high school football season, they were poised to launch the record when Sahaj was approached by MTV to have the band re-record the theme song, “Beat You Down”, for the hit show “Bully Beatdown”. With this in place the band is now poised for a far more powerful launch. You can expect to hear quite a lot from this young group. They are great live, magnetic, hungry and just getting started.

It's amazing how many bands I have been introduced to through professional wrestling (Downstait, Rev Theory, Fozzy, Egypt Central, Breaking Point, Neurotica, Stereo Mud, etc.)
