Alternative Rock from Strangely Alright

Based in the city of Tacoma in Washington State, Strangely Alright is a rock n’ roll outfit formed by frontman and keyboard player Regan Lane, guitarist and vocalist Sean Van Dommelen, bass player Ken Schaff, Raymond Hayden on keys and vocals and drummer Jason Bair. Together the five-piece of talented musicians combine to create their own modern take on retro rock music.

While their influences mostly stem from the greats of yesteryear – the whimsical sound of early Pink Floyd, later Beatles experimentalism, the swagger of Marc Bolan – their sonic offering pays a respectful nod to their musical heroes while sounding thoroughly current. The perfect example of a guitar-driven band who take no prisoners while delivering their raucous sound, Strangely Alright are celebrated torch bearers keeping rock music alive today.

Making their introduction in 2013, they dropped their debut record with The Time Machine Is Broken. Over the years since, they’ve shared a multitude of well-received singles as well as their sophomore album with 2018’s All of Us Are Strange (The Singles) and now bring us one of their most recent releases with their new single “Not The End”.

Forgoing the frills and unnecessary embellishments so often attached to the music of today’s rock scene, with “Not The End” Strangely Alright drop a punchy rock cut delivered exactly as it should be.

Full of gritty and grooving guitar riffs, pounding percussion and bass lines, colourful keyboard tones and capped by compelling vocal leads carrying instantly memorable hooks, “Not The End” showcases a classic rock sound from an accomplished band who are adept at crafting modern rock anthems.
