Celebrity

From Nashville, TN - a city better known for Stetsons and Shania-bees than for sophisticated, arena-ready guitar rock bands. Yet it was there, in the country music capitol of the world, that Lance Black first teamed up with brothers Jesse and Matt Fine in early 2001 to form Celebrity. The three bonded over a shared love of 80's British rock (The Cure, Depeche Mode, U2) and 90's American post-hardcore (Quicksand, Sunny Day Real Estate) and immediately set out to build a loyal following, playing shows in their hometown and across the US with the likes of Thursday, The Juliana Theory, Thrice, Piebald and others. Celebrity is Lance Black, Timothy Nobles and brothers Matt and Jesse Fine. They have no pretense. They simply do what feels right. They make music. Rock Music! The unit draws influence from My Bloody Valentine, Kent, The Prayer Chain, Quicksand, Failure, The Cure, Depeche Mode, Radiohead, The Catherine Wheel … The members of celebrity have no desire to reinvent the face of music. They only want to turn its head.
