Cleveland --



Cleveland was officially formed in 2002 by Sean and Dillon Beebe, with history dating back as far as childhood. Strapped with plastic guitars and sporting footy pajamas, the brothers started what would become the Cleveland legacy long before they plugged in their guitars. The young brothers soon found themselves a home in the local Albany hardcore scene, being inspired by such bands as One King Down, Snapcase, and The Clay People. The brothers began writing music of their own with three of their closest friends until 2005 when musical maturity drove the friends apart. not knowing what was to come of the turmoil, the brothers began to search for more dedicated and better looking band members. In early 2005, the rock began to take shape.



In an unforseen twist of fate, Albany greats 'Endicott' subsequently decided to separate leaving drummer Jason Nowak stranded at home with the urge to rock again. During this time, Dillon and Jason rocked in a punk band together when Dillon decided that Jay was the man for the job; Cleveland now had it's drummer.



In the months following J-NO's induction into the band, the question of who would sing still remained. That answer came in the form of ex-Outcome guitarist, John Philip Clark. Recently betrayed by best friends and band mates, John Philip brought a propensity for soulful hooks, meaningful lyrics, and straight-up sex appeal. Now only one piece to this rockin' puzzle was missing.



Enter John.Not much is known about the last member of Cleveland. Performing in bands with his twin brother since an early age, John and Jay developed a bond unlike any other. Once a dominant force on the local DJ circuit, John soon found him self jaded by peers and fans alike. Presented with the opportunity to once again share the stage with his brother, John is the last piece to the puzzle. Cleveland, now stronger, more experienced, and possessing a better understanding for their music, is ready to take on anything that comes their way.



Cleveland is complete.
