艺人介绍

by Andrew LeaheySparky's Flaw have their roots in Charlottesville, VA, where the group honed its pop/rock sound -- equal parts Maroon 5 and the Fray, with an emphasis on acoustic guitar and affable vocals -- while attending the University of Virginia. Comprised of members William Anderson (vocals, guitar, keyboard), John Stubblefield (drums), Christopher "Kit" French (saxophone), Alex Hargrave (bass), and Nate McFarland (guitar), the quintet initially formed during the members' high-school years. Their first year at U.Va. saw the fresh-faced bandmates opening for Robert Randolph and generating a healthy amount of buzz, which led to the popularity of the independently released One Small Step EP in 2005. Sparky's Flaw subsequently partnered with Red Light Management (the Dave Matthews Band's management company) and were signed to Smash Records (an imprint of the recently revived Mercury Records) in summer 2007. An eponymous EP followed that August, as the bandmates entered their final year at U.Va.
