THE DROPA STONE is a progressive rock trio from Orlando, Florida. Jon Meyers (Vocals/Guitar), Tony B. (Bass/Keyboard), and Joe Lederman (Drums) have applied their talents to create an imaginative Avant-Garde Rock sound through a common bound of passion, creativity and inspiration. Mining a wealth of influences from Yes, Led Zeppelin, Primus and Incubus, this power trio demonstrates ample abilities in this breakthrough debut, highlighted by melodic vocals, spacey/textured guitar and an inventive, technically adept rhythm section.
THE DROPA STONE brings listeners on a brilliantly diverse musical journey as the band weaves together a comprehensive tapestry of experimental rock, funk, blues and jazz. With breakthrough singles already burning up FM Radio, and a powerful live show featuring extended jams and surprise collaborations, this band breaks the conventional rock formula with an “outside the box” debut. Look for an impressive showing in 2009 from The Dropa Stone.

The Dropa Stone E.P. Review
author: Jamie
With echo-ey riffs and an eclectic feel, The Dropa Stone's self titled six song E.P. distances itself from the cookie cutter clones of modern rock. Maintaing just enough of a hard edge, they fuse a variety of musical styles, avoiding a specific genre. In fact, this is one of those bands that is difficult to place in one particular category. This isn't to say that fans of Alternative/Indie/Emo wouldn't like this record, they would. But The Dropa Stone writes and performs in such a way that damns the cliches. The songs here are instrumentally and vocally first rate, bringing a fresh new sound to a stale rock environment. The production, mix and mastering, done by Justin Thomas of Gridlock Studios, is ahead of the class.
Definitely deserving of your ears!
