Info

Sir Q emerged from the creative obscurity of an anonymous writer and an old book that spent decades hidden away on a basement shelf. The band is a culmination of avant-garde musicians and creative antithesis that delivers a sound so unique that your most dormant senses are intrigued. Hailing from Haverhill, Massachusetts, Sir Q tugs at the same nostalgia with locals as the city’s abandoned shoe factories and mills. What resonates is the band’s common passion for music and the influence of cultural elements like art, film and literature. Founded in 2000, Sir Q is a fresh approach to the proverbial verse-chorus-verse rock band. Together, Gene Fontaine, guitar and vocals; Matt Learoyd, drums and vocals; Tony Rossetti, bass and vocals; and Addam Zaino, guitar and vocals, craft complex sound armed with dense vocal harmonies and angular rhythms. Each band member lends to the vocal dichotomy: Think Beach Boys meet the alt movement. Sir Q evokes bands in a similar vein like Jesus Lizard, Nirvana, Melvins, Queens of the Stone Age and Fugazi. Sir Q has headlined at some of Boston’s most notable venues including The Paradise Rock Club, The Middle East (Upstairs and Downstairs), Bulfinch Yacht Club and Bill’s Bar.

    ________________________________________
    I ~ His Divine Grace Himself ~ Now do proclaim ~ That each & every woman, man & child residing within this borderless & beautiful Music Nation a winner, as you have all displayed the wisdom to travel upon this new frontier of Web 2.0 technologies, and elevate the commonwealth of both the fans & musicians alike! Together, we are sharing in a prototype of social engineering that is bringing different media 's into a shared collective. One that is lending light to darkness ~ as my sisters & my brothers, we've created, as a team of individuals ~ so many strides in mass communication that the exponential ramifications shall echo throughout not only our very lives but for all eternity ~ infinity ~ as victory is ours to share with every single living person ~ forevermore !
