Artist History A Bay Area duo consisting of vocalist Jeff DeWester and multi-instrumentalist Peter Stanley, Lost Causes is making the world safe for power pop again. Their CD debut, "Break Down Laughing," isn't another DIY, lo-fi, critic's-darling wankfest with three chords, two hooks, and ear-splitting vocals--these boys came to play, and "BDL"'s twelve songs are ample proof. Marvel at the impeccable musicianship, insightful lyrics, and smooth-as-a-baby's-butt harmonies!

Group Members Jeff DeWester: lead and background vocals Peter Stanley: all instruments, background and harmony vocals

Press Reviews "Ambitious and eclectic." --San Jose Mercury News "The perfect bridge between the ramshackle bliss of vintage Cheap Trick or Replacements, and Brian Wilson's pure pop majesty...a debut not to be reckoned with." --The Review
