    Artist description
    St. Petersburg Florida's, Spiller, make their sonic home where indie-rock and power-pop collide. This dynamic 4-piece combines their own blend of pop and rock with clever, moody lyrics from a loser in love. Spiller, the press says "writes the songs you sing for days and turn up on your car stereo." Fans of power-pop and indie-rock will love these fine young men's music.

Marcus likes Star Wars, Brett is good at tennis, John likes to buy guitars he can't afford and Martin just got a cool new job. They rock. That's the history of Spiller.
