Artist History
The Piper Downs kick more ass than any other rock band on earth. This four
piece met while students at Virginia Commonwealth University. A quick move to
Los Angeles, three national tours, and two self-released cds later, and The
Piper Downs are ready for world conquest. The Piper Downs have sold over
5,000 copies of their own records without any label help whatsoever...Imagine
if they were signed! The Piper Downs place a premium on songwriting and
exciting live shows. Twice they have been named the "Best Unsigned Band in
Los Angeles," have appeared on radio and television shows, and headlined the
local stage at the 1999 Vans Warped Tour. Check out their website at
