[NOTES]
Two years in the making, Stellamaris continues to mature, finding
inspiration and creating music that moves both their listeners and
themselves. Their most recent effort, a self-titled EP, was demoed in
Alex's bedroom and recorded in his living and dining rooms. Financing,
recording and producing the EP on their own, they enlisted the help of
talented friends horn players, percussionists, string players, etc. to
contribute. Mastered by Michael Fossenkemper (Grandaddy, Matisyahu,
Reggie and the Full Effect), it is a concise yet sweeping work, pinning
down the last 10 months of writing and touring together.
In support of their first self-released record, The City Turns
Everything Electric (February 2005), the band booked many shows both
nationally and locally, and have shared the stage with respectable
artists such as The Octopus Project, Lovedrug, Pilotdrift and Dios
Malos. The summer of 2005 found Stellamaris playing everywhere from
Texas to New York on a two-month tour which included an appearance in
the New Band Showcase at the invitation of the Cornerstone Festival
(IL).
This year they were invited to play both the ASCAP/Myspace Dallas
Showcase in February and the main stage at Wall of Sound Festival in
April. Stellamaris continues touring out-of-state and building a loyal
local following, frequenting Dallas-area venues such as Gypsy Tea Room,
Curtain Club and The Cavern..
