About us.


The Stationary Set:
They thrive on irony, but not the neo-hipster “Meatloaf is cool now” type of irony. They swim in sarcasm, a perfect conduit for the expression of doubt, struggle, and matters of the heart. They know how to laugh, especially at themselves.
The Stationary Set, however, is a mechanism built out of necessity. Our 20-something generation has, since maturity, towed the fine line that separates following dreams and settling for less. We were molded by the baby-boomers and sheltered from our uncertain nation, striving to become educated adults with a mountain of debt. It cannot be pinned down, however, why certain children of a class grow up to rebel against their socio-economic norms, why they attempt to cut a deeper swath. But some do rebel; some really mow it down. Perhaps for no other reason than to quell the constant craving for distinguishing themselves as unique within a blasé field of peers.
And from the mitten of the Midwest, in all of its mediocre glory, therein The Stationary Set came to be. Born out of lead singer Andrew Lutes’ over-production of indie-rock/pop songs for a former band (thefarewelldrive), Lutes teamed up with long-time friend and rock-band veteran Josh Hoisington (The Minor Fall, The Giveaway, Four Days), Hundreds of miles later, somewhere in Harlem, Joshua Davis and his Telecaster aided in the arrangement of songs old and new as the three sought out the rhythm of Logan Baldwin and Gabriel Kubitz (Bitch/Kill Rock Stars) on drums and bass respectively.
High above the Gowanus canal, in a converted industrial loft, The Stat. Set learned to put their emotionally taxing indie-rock back on the shelf in exchange for a new blend of light-hearted social commentary coupled with highly contagious, guitar-driven pop melodies. The songs therein represent a turn towards the heavier, more danceable, more attainable hooks that made up the mid/late nineties mix tapes of boys formative years. The sarcastic yet surprisingly optimistic lyrics set in a backdrop of deliciously intelligent arrangements make The Stationary Set a safe bet for anyone with a penchant for melody.
They are REALLY funny.
They've got one album under their collective belt and another on the brink. "Don't Forget in the Darkness What You Saw in the Light." was a strong debut for the boys. Their follow up, "This Is Our Nature" will be released digitally this holiday season with an extended version disc hitting the streets this spring.
In their short lifespan, the boys have shared bills, stages, and merch tables with likes of the All-American Rejects, We Are Scientists, Mobius Band, Little Brazil, Mary Timony, Hanalei, Aberdeen City, Statistics, the RZA of Wu-Tang and Team Facelift. As venue favorites throughout the Midwest and within Manhattan and its boroughs, The Stat. Set is known for bringing in crowds of good tippers, heavy drinkers, and people of a generally sunny disposition.

Enter into a realm where fantasy & reality coexist in harmony together ~   Simultainiously synchronized to enhance the very synapse of endorphins that will ultimately elevate you into a sanctuary of ecstatic self fulfillment ~ inner peace ~ & unconditional love that exists as you will transcend beyond a simple listening pleasure ~
You are always welcome inside my Ashram / Asylum ~ I hope you like my tunes !
