Antler

Since forming in 2002, Antler has defied the rules of geography by brewing genuine Southern rock from their home base of Boston, MA. That's where vocalist Craig Riggs and guitarist Tim Catz operated the stoner rock band Roadsaw before hooking up with guitarist Pete Valle, keyboard player Dave Unger, bassist Mike Quinn, and drummer Brian Strawn to record Antler's eponymous 2004 debut for Tortuga Records. Valle was replaced by new lead guitarist Ian Ross, and Quinn by new bassist Marc Schleicher before Antler reconvened to produce their second opus, Nothing That a Bullet Couldn't Cure, released by Small Stone in early 2006. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, Rovi
