Backstory:
Deep in the heart of Brooklyn, New York, where hip-hop meets rock, a group of four friends found a common ground in their love for music. They were each from different corners of the world: a drummer from Scotland, a vocalist from Australia, a bassist from England, and a guitarist from Texas. They all met at a music school in the bustling city, and after late-night jamming sessions, they realized that their unique musical stylings meshed perfectly. This gave birth to Harsh Stranger, an emblem of their diverse backgrounds combined with the gritty, soulful spirit of Brooklyn.

Alternative Rock with a touch of Blues
