Description

High-energy performances are the trademark of the four-piece pop/modern rock band. Brilliant song writing with unforgettable hooks compliment vocal harmonies and heartfelt lyrics that keep their songs in your heads for weeks on end. With a versatile assortment of tunes, Joint Custody is a band that has proven it can satisfy any audience.

Joint Custody's third full-length album, "Anthropic," was released on October 3, 2003. "Anthropic" is a 12-song collection of successful rock and pop concoctions, each one defined by a strong lyrical sense. The album provides proof of the full range of a great band, from energetic Boston rockers to introspective singer/songwriters. Pop-rock songs such as I Sleep Alone and Blue compliment the heartfelt lyrics of I Am I and Wake Up. The album is a stirring triumph of songwriting and composition with soaring guitar licks, stirring vocals, and even a who-oh chant.

Formed in 1996 in Amherst, MA Joint Custody went into the studio to record a demo. The demo evolved into their first full-length CD, "the lows, the mids, and the highs" and was released in March of '97. With all four members in school, the band concentrated on local venues and festivals, honing their live act, and selling their CD.

After selling 1,000 copies of their debut album and becoming a favorite of the annual college festivals, the band went back into the studio to record their second album, "orange." However, it is their dedication to live performances that won them the Best Local Band award for 1999 from the UMASS Daily Collegian (Amherst). It has also gained them greater exposure as a regional finalist in the 1999 Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands - a nationally sponsored event. Joint Custody celebrated the release of their second CD just two weeks before winning the 2000 Five College Area Battle of the Bands.

With seven years of music behind them, the members of Joint Custody look forward to the future and to taking on the world with "Anthropic." The new album combined with a rigorous touring schedule and work ethic is sure to win over new fans.
