Hard Rock, Guitar Solos, Jack Daniel's and Beer. Scenic Route is a four piece wrecking crew based outside Chicago. The power and drive of their guitar driven riffs bring new life to the Windy City's rock scene.
With the release of their debut full-length album "City On Fire" (July 2007) recorded at Rax Trax Recording in Chicago (American Motherload, Smashing Pumpkins) Scenic Route is pounding the scene gaining momentum with every venue they play.
This project has been long in the making. Fittingly, the name SCENIC ROUTE and the SR logo have been with them since the beginning and represent more than just a band name. It's an off the beaten path attitude and code to live by. The band founders Jeremy Bremner (guitarist/vocalist) and Ryan Distel (bassist) grew up together, and their relentless pursuit of this band has driven them over the past decade. With lead guitarist Mike Anderson and his ability to shred solos on the guitar, SCENIC ROUTE have found their niche and are here to establish themselves.

Great local band!

It's really great to hear a band that has pleasing vocals with excellent, tight guitar playing these days. I'm in my mid 30's and can't stand modern mainstream rock. This band really fits the bill nicely and will interest all. Some of their guitars even have a Corrosion Of Conformity feel to it--most noticeable in 'Lock Down'. The only small disappointment is that there is one ballad too many for this short of a CD--"Train" & "This Point". Just one of those would have been enough. Excellent CD otherwise!
