Appearing on Indie Rock Café's list of Best Songs of 2011 and described by critics as a band to watch, Falling Andes is a 3-piece indie pop-rock band formed in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in late 2010. The group was originally comprised of Dan Peluso (vocals), Jordan Wood (keyboards, electronic drums, and bass), Peter Natishan (drums), and Mike Boyer (guitar). The music of Falling Andes consists of lively pop songs incorporating tight rhythms, harmonious guitars, exuberant keyboards and synths, and distinctive vocals, all packaged in a polished production. It has been described as "catchy" with "easily digestible hooks … with a flavor all their own."
 
The founding members of Falling Andes, Peluso and Wood, released the band’s first single, "San Francisco," in the spring of 2011. The single quickly garnered attention from music blogs, print publications, and college and AAA radio stations. Shortly thereafter, the duo paired with Boyer and drummer Peter Natishan to release the band’s first album, "Frantic," with Dave Hidek at Tree Lady Studios, in Pittsburgh, and began actively touring the Northeast and Midwest United States, playing shows in New York City, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Chicago. In the spring of 2012, Natishan was replaced by drummer Toni Crough. Crough, moved to Los Angeles shortly thereafter and was then replaced by drummer Brian Ganch.  
 
In the summer of 2012, Andes began work on their sophomore album, "Castlevania," at the band's own recording studio, and with Stan Kleja at Audible Images Recording Studios, in Pittsburgh. They finished recording the album in 2013. The album was mixed by Alex Smolinski of Wonder Wonder Sound, in Milwaukee, WI and mastered by MasterDisk's Andy VanDette, in New York, NY. Alex's credits include work on Butch Vig's Emperors of Wyoming, Lola Ray, Gym Class Heroes, and Nada Surf. Andy has mastered work by David Bowie, the Beastie Boys, and Atomic Tom, among others. "Castlevania" was officially released and made available on iTunes, Amazon, and other major retailers on February 25, 2014. 

Falling Andes was on hiatus from 2015-2020 as the lead singer, Dan, went back to school for planetary science and astrophysics and moved to California from Pittsburgh. However, as of December 2020, Falling Andes has new material planned to be recorded and released in mid-2021. Dan will continue to collaborate, write, and record with Falling Andes co-founder, Jordan Wood, but as soon as it is safe again to start a band and play live shows (because of COVID), new members will be added.
