SUMMARY:Mascot Theory Duo
DESCRIPTION:The Mascot Theory has been kicking around Wisconsin weekend-warrior style for the past decade\, but like many musicians\, the great pandemic-induced entertainment halt of 2020 forced the band to reflect and refocus musical efforts. With the core foundation of singer/songwriter Erik Kjelland and the rhythm section of Nick Fry on bass guitar and Paul Metz on drums\, The Mascot Theory used this time off to slightly shift their sound away from their acoustic-driven folk-rock music and into a more classic rock inspired Rock and Roll groove\, especially thanks to the addition of lead guitarist Cory Swadley who brings a strong musical swagger and reverence to the guitar gods of the past. In 2021 the band made a major leap towards a more national focus when they were discovered and signed by manager Chuck Toler of TolerVision LLC\, who helped steer the careers of artists like Cheap Trick and Mudvayne. Toler circulated the band’s music around to trusted colleagues in the business leading to famed producer Terry Manning (Led Zeppelin\, ZZ Top\, Shakira\, Lenny Kravitz\, Stax Record) taking an interest in the band and agreeing to produce their next full-length album that will be released in 2023. In April 2022 Manning and the band assembled at Sonic Ranch Studios near El Paso\, TX to record 15 songs. \nAlong with a WAMI (Wisconsin Area Music Industry) win for Best Male Vocalist (Erik Kjelland) and many WAMI nominations for Best Americana/folk artist\, The Mascot Theory has won over 20 MAMA (Madison Area Music Association) awards including Artist of the Year.  They have played major festivals throughout Wisconsin including Summerfest\, Freak Fest\, and Mile of Music Festival\, and have shared the stage with BoDeans\, America\, Don McLean\, Vance Joy\, Frank Turner\, Chase Rice\, Kaleo\, The Wild Feathers\, Guster\, Blitzen Trapper\, Cory Chisel\, Andy Frasco and the UN\, Miles Nielsen and the Rusted Hearts\, American Aquarium\, and Lillie Mae. \nThe new music travels into its classic rock influences; harmonies that bring to mind the Eagles or Poco\, a bit of that Rolling Stones guitar swagger\, a little ZZ Top blues rock\, a dash of the Pink Floyd mood\, but never straying far from the core of the Tom Petty/Beatle-esque importance of solid melody and lyrics. Songs like “When I Drift Away”\, “Lavender Blues” and “Fast Car Getaway” showcase the new album’s infectious energy and beautiful harmonies within an eclectic landscape of well-crafted and memorable songs. \nhttps://themascottheory.com/
