Featuring a mixture of musical influences and backgrounds ranging from blues to rock to pop rock and alternative, State Society shows no limitations with their writing ability and style. Formed in September 2011 with a three-man line up and then adding an additional member to become a four-piece, State Society has broken the stigma of today's repetitive commercial/pop rock genre. Remaining true to the set objective of their project, the band has created ‘easy listening positive music’ for their fans.
 
With music influenced by bands such as Dave Mathews Band, Foo Fighters, The Temper Trap, U2, The Narrow, Coldplay and more, State Society mixes various flavours of the rock genre and a ‘feel good’ element seamlessly together. The vocals are a mixture of choral multiples including a call to anthem in their lyrics that have a
definite social conscience. The humble band are in it for the love of music and as cliché as that sounds, it truly resonates in the way they interact with anybody come into contact with. In the middle of recording their debut album this band succeeded in playing a countless number of shows in their club tour across South Africa between 2012 and 2013.
 
State Society is preparing to start a new chapter. Their debut album, ‘This Life’, is out now and available at all shows and digitally. They released it independently as a testament to all their hard work over the last two years cementing their position in local
music landscape. Not stopping there, the band are currently in the process of writing new material while still delivering their fan-favourite tracks to audiences in South Africa.
‘Music videos, press coverage, festivals and fan engagement, including lining up the writing process for our second album are in our sights’ says Cliff Barnard, frontman of the band. So be ready and gear up for State Society as they prepare to take South Africa by the horns. 2014 was great for the band. They have performed at Oppikoppi as well as high-profile shows alongside the likes of Gangs Of Ballet, Wrestlerish, Justin Serraro, Man As Machine, Woodstock Mafia and many more at SA’s top venues.
 
The single ‘Beautiful Day’ has been playlisted on radio stations across the country including East Coast Radio, MFM, Mix FM, Groot FM, UCT Radio, Kovsie FM and many more. The music video is gaining incredible traction on broadcasters such as MNET, SABC 3 and MK as well as creating great conversation online. The band has also performed live on air and interviewed on e.tv Sunrise, Mix FM, Power FM, UCT Radio and more.
 
‘Dance’, the latest single has received an amazing response from radio following the success of ‘Beautiful Day’. The upbeat track has been playlisted on stations such as Tuks FM, Jacaranda FM, Kovsie FM and MFM to name a few.
 
The band are currently in the process of pre-production on their upcoming new album. The first single is ‘We Are’ which has become a favourite at the live shows and will also feature a surprise guest artist. More to be announced soon!
