Theo is a four piece indie rock band from the Midwest whose influence and sound ranges from 1960's U.K. to modern day indie pop. Known throughout the region for their enthusiastic live shows, melodic harmonies, and catchy hooks.
In 2007 the current line-up was formed when the main songwriting team of John and Brett met up with the super force rhythm section of Kevin and Elliot.
After winning a Chicagoland battle of the bands in late 2007, Theo re-vamped their sound and headed into the studio to work on their upcoming EP. During 2008, Theo has been tweaking their live performance and expanding their ever growing fan base with performances in Chicago and Indianapolis while still performing to standing room only crowds in their hometown. Competing against over 5000 other bands from around the world, Theo recently made it into the finals at Ourstage.com in the categories of Bonnaroo,
CMJ, Indie Pop, Rothbury, and Best Music Video.
Me and the crew think you guys are fantastic. We all had a blast at Cronies. Ya'll porked the fest fer sure. If I have an open date, you got a gig, I'm there. Get out and see this band boys and girls.
Thank you THEO for makeing my Birthday the most awesome ever! Iv'e been getting all sorts of compliments about you! (Not just from the under 12 crowd either.) Which by the way they will be selling all your autographs on EBAY for millions someday. Aparently you are all much cooler than you realize. Thanks for the I look 26 comment also..I realize the sun was in your eyes but I appreciate it anyway! XXOO
Hey guys...thanks so much for the kind remarks. We thoroughly enjoyed playing with you guys as well. I'm gonna keep a look out and if you guys make it back up to Chicago, I'll be there. Hope things are well!
Hey Brett, that'd be awesome if you could up it for the Schubas show. We're trying to go out with a bang. And YES, we definitely need to play again. We're going to be taking some time off after Schubas to record. But we're going to throw a show in here and there.
I am now super excited because I just saw that you guys are playing at the Wanatah Legion on the 18th! I'm going to be home for my niece's birthday... so I will definitely be there! Can't wait to hear you rock out! :)
So you guys don't happen to be playing a show this Friday night... do you? I was just hoping because I'm going to be in town for just the night and won't really have time to see anyone. But I thought it would be nice if you were playing somewhere... then I could see everyone and see you play! I miss seeing you guys live! :)
Hey guys, its Jonny from never, never. We should definetely play a show together sometime real soon. It was fun at the beach show and you guys rock. Let us know and we will open for you guys or vice versa.
Hell yeah fellas...great show again. Sorry about the time issues and what not. Let us know about that Halloween show. We've got a killer idea. Looking forward to it. Be good.
