Music Style Punk

Artist History Despite an increasing public outcry for a change in station playlists, the nightmare that is modern American radio continues. Corporate executives continue to force-feed bland, over polished, and uninspriring "hits" to music fans across the country. Is this unfortunate situation the result of a lack of artistry by today's musicians and songwriters? According to the members of New Orleans' everyday tuesday, the answer is a definite NO. "Over the past few years, I've discovered so many new bands on the underground that it's actually hilarious to listen to the radio," comments bassist and lead vocalist, Stewart Dowouis. "Why on these stations continue to underestimate and ignore our requests for a broader selection of better bands is a mystery to me. Rock is not dead." With the help of fellow bandmates Mike Chaisson (guitar), David Gamble(guitar), and Jeremy Falgoust (drums), Stewart and everyday tuesday have set out to do their part in battling this seemingly undefeatable corporate monster. "We don't pretend to be something new and groundbreaking," adds guitarist David. "Everything that can be done in rock has been done. It's just up to bands like us to pull all of those influences together and to create the best music that we can in a way that will affect people." Anyone that hears their music will certainly agree that this is exactly what they are accomplishing. everyday tuesday's combination of catchy, yet intense rock songs and obvious individual passions for new music make this band extremely appealing to those who are looking for a break from modern radio's monotony. By blending the power and raw aggresion of punk and metal with the melodic harmonies of the 80's pop/new wave and the passion and conviction of emo/post-hardcore, everyday tuesday have set themselves apart from countless other unsigned bands vying for attention on the rock underground. Few will deny that they have what it takes to capture a national audience. It's only a matter of time before they do just that. These guys really have paid their dues over the last decade or so. It hasn't been an easy ride for them. Back in the early 90's, the four members of everyday tuesday travelled the southern states promoting the grindcore metal outfit, Infant Slug. Since that time, they've suffered incredible personal hardships and financial setbacks, including the failure of several musical ventures, the suicide of former Infant Slug bandmate, and a work related accident that threatened the future of Jeremy's musical career. "I was involved in an accident while out on a jobsite that almost cost me my arm as well as my future as a drummer," states Jeremy. "Without my dedication to getting behind the kit, I would probably still be sitting at home disabled and miserable." After nursing himself back to health and learning of the breakup of David, Mike, and Stewart's previous band, Flowers For Tracy, Jeremy contacted his former bandmates with the prospect of reuniting. Without hesitation, they agreed and were soon writing the most mature music of their careers. "We rock! The four of us have such a long history together that this just feels right," says Mike. "I'm so proud of what we have accomplished already, and I'm sure we are just getting started." The buzz around their local rock scene in New Orleans is proof of that. everyday tuesday entered Festival Studios in Kenner, Louisiana and recorded a short ep in the summer of 2003 that garnered the attention of several fans in need of something outside of the horrible rap-rock, dated metal, and hip-hop scenes that have owned their local music scene for years. They have given new life to the area and as a result are being showered with accolades. The current climate of today's music industry makes it virtually impossible to predict where everyday tuesday will be in five years. However, judging be their unmatched dedication, their love for music culture, and their drive to succeed, it is safe to say that the future ahead looks bright for this young band.
