Meet the Next is a modern, classic rock band with musical influences including the mesmerizing harmonies and melodies of the Beatles, the power-sound of early Chicago, the vocal introspection of a solo John Waite, the down-to-earth simplicity of Tom Petty, the modern melodic sensibility of Train, along with the distinct musicality of The Cars, creating songs with reflective lyrics, unique harmonies, and undeniably accessible music.
