The Maybe Somedays are a rock and roll band based out of Los Angeles. The band is fronted by singer/songwriter and guitarist Billy McIntyre, with Dan Moore on drums, Yan Clermont on lead guitar and backing vocals, and Yutaka Sao on bass and backing vocals.

The band was born when drummer Dan Moore and singer/guitarist Billy McIntyre combined forces in the winter of 2011. Dan provided the perfect hard hitting style that was needed to push the songs forward and provide the big beat choruses to drive it home. The mission was simple: play loud, play fast, save rock and roll. With Dan (also an esteemed sound engineer) at the helm, they went into the studio and recorded their debut single These City Lights and began playing at local haunts to growing crowds. Looking to fill out the sound, the duo recruited the talents of guitarist Yan Clermont. Hailing from Montreal, Yan's guitar sound helped to create the kind of soundscapes that the songs deserved, and at last, the lineup was complete.

To record their debut EP All We Have Is Everything, the guys looked to LA producer Luke Tierney (The Dead Peasants, Penfifteen Club, SilverJet). They found themselves working tirelessly at mundane day jobs to save money for periodic recording sessions which took place mostly in a garage at Luke's home, nestled in the historically charmed hills of Laurel Canyon. While at Tierney's home studio, they spent countless hours honing in on and capturing their sound which features melodic, guitar driven songs with big sing along choruses, backed up by a hard hitting and driving rhythm section. Once recording was completed for the EP, the amazing fans and support of the band helped to complete a successful crowd funding campaign to fund the production and release of the record.

Road trips out of town from San Diego to Santa Barbara saw shows getting sharper and crowds getting bigger. During this time, the band began writing sessions for the new record in 2014, geared toward a more cohesive group songwriting approach. Initial tracking for the new material was done with Eric Palmquist (Bad Suns, Night Riots, Waaves) at Palmquist Studios in Alhambra. The new material features songs with soaring vocal harmonies, and a broader sonic dynamic which reflects a maturation in sound for the group. One show at a time, they press on singing loud and hitting hard. Some say rock music is dead, but The Maybe Somedays are living proof that when the lights go down, and the band takes the stage, there is life and there is hope, one song at a time.

The band is currently working on the recording of their sophomore EP Underrated & Faded which will be coming out this summer. Stay tuned to the website and Facebook page for details on shows.
