What if Radiohead and Johnny Cash had sat down and banged out a rough cut two disc set over a booze and drug addled weekend?
We sound nothing like that would sound, but isn't it interesting to think about?
A Modern Bison is a rock band based in Chicago, Illinois. The band was formed in September, 2006.
A Modern Bison's music has been inspired by an array of pop, classic rock, electronica and alternative rock artists through which they have formed a singular and distinctive identity. Some songs hearken back to classic album rock, whereas other songs draw from the sound and style of Radiohead and Wilco. The foundation of the music is generally guitar/vocal pop, upon which the layers of keys, counterpart guitar, bass, and rhythm is carefully constructed. The result is a strong-rooted structure with an electronic and playful exploration of sound. They've spent most of the last 2 years bringing their high-energy live show to some of the best music clubs in the midwest including the Double Door, Subterranean, Beat Kitchen, the Elbo Room, etc.
