   About the Republic

The Republic

Striving to create meaningful music that is self-challenging and hopeful.

Based in Seattle, drawing inspiration from great rock locals like Dave Bazan (Pedro the Lion) and Death Cab for Cutie. The Republic released 'Kingdom of Noise' in March 2009, a full length record with the goal to not create more noise, but music that inspires and motivates its listeners.
