Biography

Although hailing from Charleston, SC, the Explorers Club conjure up memories of Southern California with a mix of pop melodies, vintage production, and Beach Boys-styled harmonies. The band formed in 2005, with 23 year-old Jason Brewer assuming lead vocals and songwriting duties. Multi-instrumentalists James Faust and David Ellis climbed aboard to help round out the band's harmonies, as did bassist/vocalist Wally Reddington. Drummer Neil Thomas and keyboardist Stefan Rogenmoser completed the band's lineup, and the Explorers Club began crafting a sunny sound that recalled classic pop/rock acts from the '60s. After securing placements on popular television shows like The O.C., the sextet attracted attention from Dead Oceans Records and ultimately joined the label in June 2007. Freedom Wind, their nostalgic debut album, arrived the following year. ~ Andrew Leahey, All Music Guide
