Strangely Alright
Strangely Alright is most definitely an understatement of a name for this kick ass band. While they are most definitely strange, they are way above the level of “alright”, they are fucking awesome. The latest EP is extremely addictive, if you don’t give it a try you are out of your friggin mind.

Here is some information from their Facebook page:
Drawing inspiration from various generations of British iconoclasts – including David Bowie, T. Rex, the Jam, Suede, the Buzzcocks, and Supergrass – Strangely Alright moves with an electric thrum and a more than a little swagger. Sprinkle in a bit of Cheap Trick’s rowdy power pop, and you’re getting closer to picking up what Strangely Alright’s putting down. And time can have a tricky way of beating people down and telling them to forget who they wanted to be and who they are. The fact that some members of the strangely clan are in recovery brings to mind the reality that people can find what was once lost.

Strangely Alright 2018
2018 started out with a bang with the boys being added to Sub Pop’s “Best of The Northwest” playlist on Spotify and rollicking visit with StarDog and T2 on KGRG 89.9 FM’s Puget Sound showcasing new tunes from Stuff and playing some acoustic numbers live in the studio! They were also invited in to perform new tunes on The Spud Goodman Show!“Come On” was given the honor of being the lead track on the London Bridge recorded “One Take Pacific Northwest Volume 1” and recently Regan and Sean wrote the theme song for the syndicated radio show “True Fidelity” and SA’s music was also included on the (now defunct) hit Seattle sketch comedy show “The 206”..

Regan Lane
SA make great recordings, but they really excel in a live setting. Each member brings a unique aspect to the SA sound. Frontman Regan Lane’s theatrical performances, bassist Ken Schaff”s driving hard rock influences, Jason Bair’s rocking military precision on drums, Ray Hayden’s keyboard crush on all things prog rock and Sean Van Dommelen’s crunchy white boy blues all collide together creating a sound that is familiar yet uniquely their own.. Lane’s charismatic presence and ability to get asses out of their seats and the obvious joy the band has playing live make for a kick ass show!
