Celebrated as one of the worlds very best festival bands, The Cat Empire deliver a spectacular live show, legendary for making their vast global audience dance.

 The sound of international espionage....music to rob banks to. The Stevedores formed under the canopy of the trust fund fueled drug/sex scene at Sarah Lawrence College in Westchester New York during the early part of the new century. They played extensively around the campus in ballrooms, bedrooms, and girls dorms before moving to larger venues in New York City. They played a series of shows at the Knitting Factory in lower Manhattan during the spring of 2006 performing as "Canfield Devil House".
In June 2006 after recording "Tamuawok." the band moved to Madison, WI under the name "The Stevedores" to begin work on their next album "The Straw That Broke The Camel's Heart". Soon after the move, lead singer Spencer Bell was diagnosed with Adrenal Cancer and passed away on December 3rd in Madison. He was 20 years old.
On February 4th, 2007,The Stevedores entered the RPM challenge to record an entire album in the month of February. They finished recording
"This Is Very Important Message* on February 25th.
The Stevedores performed regularly during the summer of 2007, playing such venues as The High Noon Saloon and the Orpheum Theatre in Wisconsin.
The band has since scattered to the four corners of the country, reconvening in July 2012 to record the songs they had left behind. This EP, "The Straw That Broke The Camel's Heart" was generously funded by fans through the Kickstarter platform and will be released in the Spring of 2013, to be followed by a short tour from Austin, TX up to Madison, WI.

They were lucky. When twelve and thirteen year old kids start a band, there are no auditions - whoever can play an instrument and lives in the neighborhood is in. Sleeping in the Stereo was fortunate not only because of their individual talents, but because the group has developed the tightness of bands twice their age. Most bands don’t share the history with each other that these musicians do. In 2006, long time neighborhood friends; drummer Teddy Mathews, guitarist Henry Stoehr, and bassist Alex Leeds met guitarist Paul Arbaje through the teenage band incubator, Good N’ Loud music. Two years later, vocalist Frankie Pobar Lay was added to the roster and the band was complete. 

Sleeping in the Stereo has performed throughout southern Wisconsin over the past four years, including venues such as Summerfest, The Majestic, The Frequency, and the Memorial Union Theater. They have also been the recipients of two Madison Area Music Awards (M.A.M.A.’s). Recently they won the Isthmus Band to Band Combat, giving them some well-deserved attention, and a much wider fan base. Finalists in the statewide Launchpad competition for three consecutive years, Sleeping in the Stereo were offered a commercial campaign by Tilt Media/Charter Communications, worth upwards of $7500. This ad aired on MTV, VH1, USA, and Comedy Central. In a collaborative effort with Launchpad, they were also asked to film a commercial to help promote the state-wide competition.
