So have i has developed exceptional versatility playing a wide range of venues over the last couple of years. In addition, 4 of the 5 members have been primary songwriters for different bands from LA to Nashville to Boston. From classical training to rock club skills, So have i write and perform original songs which emerge from the varied backgrounds of the band members themselves. Topics range from jilted lovers to individual fallibility but one thing is consistent – melodies that grab you and won’t let go. Combine that with superb musicianship and So have i is a must-see live show.

“If Velvet Revolver and Coldplay had a love child, it may or may not be this band.”
Monty LeBrango, February, 2005

Yeah, yeah. Now that you’ve heard the company line here is the low down. While all of the above is true, So have i has been around long enough to learn that you can’t take yourself too seriously when performing rock music. After all, it’s SUPPOSED TO BE FUN!! You aren’t going to find the “Tortured Artist” thing or the “Life is Such Crap I Think I’ll Shoot Myself Onstage” thing or the “I Really Want to be a Male Model” thing or the “I’m Such a_____ (fill in blank: blues, reggae, country, etc…) Purist That I Don’t Listen to Anything Unless It Was Recorded Pre-World War II on a 78 rpm Record” thing…You get the picture. So have i is about having a good time playing live and that translates to the audience. So, if you’re ready to let loose a little bit and have a good time seeing a great band, So have i is a must-see live show.
