    TOP STORIES
    The label ‘original’ in the world of rock and roll has become something of a misnomer in the last 10 to 15 years. The seemingly daunting task of creating a new sound has given rise to the mass production of 3 chord songs with nasally driven vocals. Yet within the incessant musical waves of the ‘same’, some bands have and do embrace the unique musicianship that each member brings and in turn, foster a distinctive sound. It is within this vision that NeoRelic aspires to create its music and in turn be self-defining. NeoRelic’s story began several years ago when David Wells (vocals, keys, guitar, harmonica) and Brandon Davar (Lead guitar and vocals) became friends and artistic collaborators at Mission Viejo High School in Orange County. Besides sharing a love of theater and a quirky sense of humor, these two friends quickly learned of each other’s deep rooted passion for music, ranging from classical to blues and classic rock. David and Brandon especially cultivated a deep rooted passion for such 70’s rock bands as Queen, Led Zeppelin and Styx. In the winter of 2001, Brandon and David started performing at local high schools and coffee shops as a duo. The group’s theatrical humor and musical talents attracted such a following that they quickly expanded into a four-piece and named the band NeoRelic. Soon thereafter, NeoRelic started playing such venues as the Coach House in Orange County and the Roxy in Hollywood. In the fall of 2006, Brandon and David parted ways with their rhythm section in the hopes of finding members that shared their musical aspirations and vision. Throughout the seemingly endless process of scouring the internet and auditioning for “the” right band (Hanson included), Harry Ostrem (bass guitar and backing vocals) stumbled upon NeoRelic’s add on CraigsList. Hailing from Montana, Harry moved to Los Angeles in hopes of finding a band completely devoted to creating musically layered songs with thought provoking lyrics. Harry found a home in NeoRelic and began to meld his playing, steeped in 70’s rock and funk, with Brandon’s blistering Brian May inspired guitar sound and David’s powerful and classically trained voice. All three members desired a rich harmony based sound reminiscent of the Eagles and other 70’s bands. Most importantly, NeoRelic decided to be a band founded on openness and steadfast to the rule of giving every artistic inspiration a chance to thrive. NeoRelic is currently awing audiences with its musically challenging yet radio friendly songs, pristine harmonies and larger than life stage show throughout Los Angeles and Southern California. Stay tuned as NeoRelic continues to create, play, tour and record.
