Release Notes:
Since forming in Buffalo, NY, in the mid-'90s,
Girlpope received much critical acclaim as a top-
contending unit in the power pop arena of rock
music. Led vocally by guitarist Mark Norris and ably
accompanied by bassist/vocalist Richie Campagna,
drummer Brandon Delmont, and newcomer Tommy "The
Kid" Stanford on sax and guitar, Girlpope was named
Best Local Band by the Buffalo News within their
first year as a band. Their first recording, a 7"
single titled I Was a Teenage Jesus became a staple
on local radio. After winning a local battle of the
bands contest, Girlpope recorded their first full-
length CD Cheeses of Nazareth on P22/Atom Smash
Records. The disc earned national distribution, was
recognized as Best Local Album by the Buffalo Times,
and received international airplay, landing a
coveted slot in the Top Ten list of Radio Belgium's
year-end polls. All this attention eventually
resulted in opening for bands Cheap Trick, Love,
Sloan, and Mercury Rev.
Girlpope's second disc, the eight-song EP The Whole
Scene Going, the band was named Outstanding Rock
Group of the Year by entertainment journal Artvoice,
the Buffalo News, and Buffalo Beat Music.
