Poetic Tragedy Bio
In a music world dominated by auto-tuned vocals, programmed drum beats, and over-choreographed, lip-synced “live” performances, bands such as POETIC TRAGEDY are a rarity. As part of the “neo-classic rock” scene currently dominating New York, these indie-rockers arose in response to the often-posed question, “What ever happened to bands like The Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin?”
POETIC TRAGEDY creates raw, melodic, memorable songs by combining the intellectual curiosity of the Beatles, the infinite energy of The Doors, the simplistic guitar riffs of The Strokes, and the quirkiness of Franz Ferdinand to create a distinctly unique and instantly memorable sound that reinterprets classic rock for a new generation.
Composed of Matt Lopez on guitars and lead vocals, and other musicians. Matt finds inspiration not only in the music of his forefathers, but also in the way in which legends such as Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix questioned the establishment and looked at the world through a cynical eye.
This old-school approach to the music is catching on quickly, as POETIC TRAGEDY has already played for crowds numbering in the thousands. With prestigious gigs such as the main stage at New York City’s “The Knitting Factory” already under their belts, word is getting out rapidly. When asked about the immediate success of the group, lead singer, Matt Lopez explains, “It’s all about having fun and meeting the needs of our fans, while staying true to ourselves and letting people know we’re just beginning to shake things up.”
Where the future of POETIC TRAGEDY is concerned, look for the release of their latest full-length recording, “Twilight On The Dawn Of Madness” in September 2007, and for more information on the latest news, music, pictures, and merchandise, be sure to check out www.poetictragedyband.com and www.myspace.com/poetictragedyband.
