Five Sweet men with loud guitars, dynamic vocals, loose dance moves, and rollercoaster rhythms; writing memorable guitar rock for the ADD generation.
Jeff Buckley plus Queen divided by Radiohead equals Sylmar
Like Korean Cuisine, Sylmar is best enjoyed live. Channeling the swagger of Nick Cave and Freddie Mercury, the lyrics of Matt Berninger and the energy of Joe Talbot, lead singer Brian McCullough sweats enough for the entire band.
Guitarists Dan Sutter and Luke Glaser pair John Frusciante and Carl Broemel licks with ambient, shoe-gaze soundscapes to create a wide spectrum of sound. Check out Fittering and Kinks to get a feel for their dynamic.
Rhythm section, Ethan Kimberly and Dom Franco impress progheads, jazz and jam nuts alike, with the chops of At the Drive-In, Thundercat and yes even Phish. Take a ride with post-punk bop Needja.
Sylmar is all over the place. A Variety show. Not for everyone, but maybe just for you. Sure to turn your brown hair Purple.
