Since Feb.16th 2001, we have played hundreds and

hundreds of shows and had the opportunity to span

the mid and eastern U.S.

We are based out of Pittsburgh, PA. Over the years

we have played almost every single venue, club,

bar, Church, fire hall, flatbed, park, house, coffee

shop or VFW that our great city ever had.

We got to play with some of our biggest musical

influences and experience shows that words

honestly can not express.

We were blessed enough to appear on Comp cds with

bands we grew up listening to and in magazines we

grew up reading.

We earned it all without the aid of any big record

companies or managers.



We stuck the music scene out this long through all

of its up's and down's. We outlasted the latest

movements of Techno, Skate Punk, Pop Punk,

Gutter Punk, Pchyco-billy, Ska, Reggae, Swing,

Emo, Screamo, Folk, Rap metal, New metal, Heavy

metal, Hardcore, Garage rock, Bar rock & Butt rock

We stood the tests of time with a big fat grin.



Each year has only gotten better and busier and

we believe that we are on the right path.



We all work as professional window cleaners in the

city and its suburbs.



So, we currently we do not play music full time.

We feel extremely blessed to still be able to tour and

Get our music out there to all you guys here

Pay attention and stay tuned cause this year is

gonna be a crazy one!

Thank YOU for caring enough to read this.



AMP MAGAZINE



If you have not already seen, heard, or heard

of this band, you will. With a sound indescribable

and a live show more sincere and heartfelt than

your best friends funeral.

The scene is set: small club, dim lights they climb

on the stage, tell you a story the entire crowd is

silent, hanging on every word they begin to play.

Tears flow from their eyes like an open artery. Its

all very personal,dark lyrics,energetic, heavy,

mellow, melodic, hard breakdowns, blood-curdling

screams, feedback all over an ever changing tempo.

songs of death, songs of life, songs of pain, divorce

and suicide. But all songs with deep personal meaning.

Theres something more to these songs, things that

you can only hear with your heart.

It's like a musical diary.



I know what youre thinking. Not another I hate my

life band uniformed in black crawling around the

stage like every show. Thats just the thing, there

is no show here.

This band is different, very humble, very honest

and despite the songs of (personal) torment and

destruction, very friendly.

They've been able to accomplish all they have

done without the aid of record companies.

Thats right, 100% DIY.

I love these guys, and chances are, if you've ever

heard or met them, you do too. - Josh Cascone

PURE GRAIN AUDIO review:



A band hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania are

here to let you know that some music just can’t be

classified into one specific style. This band is totally

original by all means and then some.

Featherlight have a lot of potential for sure, mostly

due to the fact that their music is very original.



Featherlight is a band that holds nothing back at all.

They will rock you, especially if you’re looking for

something new and fresh. They have songs that will

each make you listen very carefully. They have a

mix of everything in their music, genres ranging

from Screamo, Emo and Rock to Alternative, Punk

and Metal. Not a bad mix!



They really do have a crazy style and originality

for sure. This band is very catchy to the point that

in some parts of songs you’re thinking, “Yeah this

could be on the radio and be getting more air play

the most of the sh*t out there today!”

The vocals were very dark but overall very well

done and easy to listen to. One thing I like about

the singer is that you can hear everything he speaks,

so that’s a bonus.



The music itself isn’t very complicated, but it's very

well done and something you could easily get in to.

I support these guys at what they are doing and their

messages have great intentions- Kenny/PureGrainAudio

While "Soundtech" reviewed it as 1 star out of 5 calling it "an experimental mess" and listed it as "Too eclectic and weird for the average listener"
