** **

Bio: Melodic. Ambient. Dynamic. Radio Songs. These are the words that best describe the music of The Follow.

     "Drive (version 2)" on Invisible Records "Notes From Thee Real Underground" recently found play on over 80 commercial rock stations including: WWCD, KBXR, WRNR, WOXY, KANR, KSEK, KKJT and more. The Follow has also received play on over 225 college and public stations.

     The band won the iCast.com "Land Your Band" contest and peaked at #2 on the MP3.com Alternative Artist Chart, as well as #25 on the TOP 40 Chart.

     MTV’s "Making the Video" featured "Carry On", which also saw airtime on three episodes of the outdoor adventure show, "Outward Bound" (Discovery and Travel Channels). A clip can be viewed at the band’s official website: http://www.TheFollow.com.

     "Exactly what Modern Rock radio needs!"
Jack DeVoss - CD101

     "We’re not playing The Follow because they’re
a Regional band. For us, it’s because their music
stands up to all of the Major Label music coming
across my desk." Ruth Choate - KNSX

     "Power Pop tends to be an overused term to describe many bands, but with their mix of excellent melodies, great songwriting, guitar driven hooks and great bass lines, The Follow fit the description." Simon Rose - KBXR

     The Follow have played venues from Colorado to New York. The band has recently shared stages with Zwan (ft. Billy Corgan), Gravity Kills, gODHEAD, & Pigface. Their music is sometimes compared to that of U2, Pink Floyd, Radiohead & Stone Temple Pilots. The band feels that their music is a blend of those bands along with R.E.M., The Church, The Cult, The Cure, Peter Gabriel, Simple Minds, Tears for Fears, Coldplay, Remy Zero, and more.
