Stockton was formed in April 2008, by four musicians who wanted to bring something different to the heavy music scene. They blend many styles of music together to form a collective whole that has become this bands sound. Named after the great gonzo journalist Dr. Hunter S. Thompson, Stockton brings performing to a new level. They bring a high energy, all-out show, to be enjoyed by all ages.
Stockton does not only place emphasis on their music, they try to be the most professional act that they can be. They arrive to venues on time, they are on stage fast, and off even faster. They stick around after they play and enjoy the other local acts who struggle along with them. They work hard, and party harder. They are hungry, and they will stop at nothing to show you.
Since July 2008 Stockton has played with Saliva, Every Time I Die, Mushroomhead, Emmure, A Life Once Lost, Tony Danza Extravaganza, Veil Of Maya, The Bronx, Stick to Your Guns, A Fredudian Slip, Neverset, Adakain, Know Lyfe, and many, many others.
In January 2009, Stockton released their first full-length album. Tim Bushong (Bloodlined Calligraphy, Haste The Day, Still Remains) produced the album. You can order "The Future of an Illusion” at www.stocktonband.com
In April 2009 Stockton added Mike "Mickers" McNally (The Orphan) to their lineup. Since solidifying the roster Stockton has completed two tours across the midwest and they are currently planning a fall tour that will reach to California.
