Over the course of a decade and several releases, Stellarscope has developed a sound architecture that is constantly evolving. Formed in the mid-90's, by guitarist/vocalist Tommy Lugo, Stellarscope have the rare ability to combine quality space-pop and sonic-ly charged experimentation.
Influenced by music ranging from classic rock, jam bands, progressive rock, punk rock, psychedelic rock to shoegaze, modern rock, and alternative; they have an innate ability to create textured soundscapes that border on the psychedelic with emphasis in songwriting and expansion.
Unlike most bands of the genre, Stellarscope relies heavily on straight ahead vocal conviction, giving the songs a sense of grounded-ness when the chaos of sound ensues. They have consistently played the East Coast of the USA & Canada for many years now, honing they’re live, bliss-out sounds, astonishing performances made of massive walls of sound, and has released several full-lengths, EPs, and they have also participate in various world wide compilations and tribute albums. Bob Forman joined Stellarscope in 1998 and has been consistent member through-out the years. He brings the element of progressiveness and power to the sound. Pete Cohlert joined the band in the winter of 2004 bringing with him a fresh approach to music creation, beautiful bass-lines, and an excellent groove oriented vibe.
Living Under the Radar is their newest effort and it takes the band into new era of sound exploration and songwriting, featuring the song Insdie Out, which receieved an Honorable Mention by the Billboard two years in a row for Songwriting.
