Upstate New York band, Take One Car, have been making a name for themselves ever since their 2009 release, 'When The Ceiling Meets The Floor'. Along with a strong local following, they've established themselves as one of the Northeast's hardest working unsigned bands. Sharing the bill with such acts as The Dear Hunter, Minus The Bear, and Moving Mountains, the band also performed at The Bamboozle Festival two years in a row. 2012 will see the release of their second full length, 'It's Going To Be A Nice Day', along with supporting tour dates. MEMBERS - Tyler Irish – vocals/guitar | Pete Scholes – guitar | Branden Waite – Bass | Ryan Saldariagga – Drums - REVIEWS - “The band mixes heavy riffs, fast finger work, and crashing cymbal-driven drums with haunting guitar melodies, and occasional ambient sounds. Tyler spouts cryptic lyrics in vocals ranging from shaky lament to rugged scream. Their sound is self-definably indefinable.” (Read.It.Now, 03.08) “The ability to fuse influences from wide ranging genres into what, on the surface, appears to be a fairly straightforward rock album is Take One Car’s greatest asset.” (PureGrainAudio, 06.09) “If you haven’t heard Take One Car you may be in for a surprise. Billing the group as experimental certainly hit the target, though there is rock flavor somewhere in the ambient sounds….“anger-jazz” might fit some of the music here.” (Indieupdate.com,09.09) “Putting together thrashing guitars with heavy drumming, this band creates an explosion of energy and excitement with a hardcore edge.” (ESBMusic, 10.09) “…When The Ceiling Meets The Floor was released this past May and is full of an energy that lacks in many bands today.” (Get Stoked! On Music, 11.09) “The intensity behind certain tracks is immense, as well crafted build ups sneak up on you, and are then released with real prowess…” (Alter The Press, 11.09)
