At the heart of the Midwest music scene, is the country’s next pop/rock sensation. Based out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin is Now You Have Audio. Their style is a mixture of melodic vocals, catchy guitars, explosive bass and driving beats anchored by their strong musicianship in the vein of All Time Low and Hit the Lights. Brothers and front men Pete (vocals/guitar) and Dan Lee (vocals/bass) are accompanied by guitarist Ben Pitsch and drummer Colin Hansen. Each member brings with them a variety of creative influences, which is clearly shown through the group’s fresh and dynamic sound.
Forming in early 2006, Now You Have Audio wasted no time as they hit the ground running. Originally starting as a three piece with intentions of adding another guitar player down the line, the group hit the studio to record their debut EP. After the release of “When Everything Falls Apart” they set their sights on guitarist Ben Pitsch, who provided a new intensity and somewhat harder edge to the already poppy music. In March of ‘08, Now You Have Audio released their first full length, “Every Time We Close Our Eyes.” The full length has sold 800 copies to date.
With an energetic live show backing their efforts, Now You Have Audio has generated a large fan base that continues to grow with each performance. Their captivating style wins over thousands, as the group continues to tour through out the Midwest. As a sign of their growing popularity, Now You Have Audio was crowned the “KISS FM Superstar” of 2007. The contest was held by the station’s Milwaukee affiliate, and with this success came regular airplay on the station.
Now, firmly established at the local level, the band has set out to make an impact nationally. Through the vast resources of the Internet, people across the Country have felt the immediate rush of excitement brought on by the music of Now You Have Audio. The bands infectious energy has hit an all time high with the recent digital release of their new EP titled, “You’ve Got a Way With Words”, which became available in April of ‘09. Through their concentrated brand of music and exceptional live presence, Now You Have Audio is truly paving their own way to success!
