Profile Information
- Name
- The 54
- About Me
- The 54 grew from what was once an experimental acoustic project between classmates. In 2007, they set their sites on further developing an edgier sound that displayed what was becoming increasingly absent from the Rock scene: honesty, rawness, and showmanship.
At this point, only one thing was missing: a name. They experimented with several ideas: Chucks and Forces, StereoTip, Better than Sects... Nothing was striking a chord, until it came: The 54- with the new name came a new attitude, confidence, and a deeply rooted desire to transform their project into something that would one day be larger than life.
One of their undeniable strengths is their ability to merge different sounds with an explosiveness that inspires listeners to respond with the same uncontrollable, unapologetic impulsiveness. With lyrical content to expose the pre-historic definitions of fun, music, celebration, and honest human expression, The 54 shows signs of becoming the relatable rock band by which every other band claiming to be "of the people" must measure themselves. Having developed a cult-like following in Atlanta, the band has their eyes set on national and international ambitions. The 54 is soon to let the world know what they've been missing::::.

The 54 has a sound that could be described as, passionately delivered, audible energy. Their live show, however... you have to see it, to believe it.

Lord Q said… What up Afro-Punker!
I manage the Los Angeles based metal band, BRAIN DEAD BUROCKRACY (BDB), and could use your help.
In the DIY spirit, we are booking gigs throughout the States for April, May and June and want to gig in your town. Might you be interested in co-producing a show with us? Pretty much, you pick the best place, small venues (200 cap.), and we work out development and marketing together. Great opportunity to bring some Black rockers to your town, and we may even make a little gas money. Also, as Founder and Creative Director of LA PUNK NOIR, I am able to provide your band with exposure via our Official site, as well, as host a performance before an enthusiastic LPN crowd, should you have an interest in coming to L.A. Any help/advice would be great.
Consider and connect.
Peace,
Lord Q

- Honestly, you guys should come to Rocketown in downtown Nashville TN to preform. :) We have tons of Afro fans out here, and I'm sure they'd love to hear you guys, me as well. Last spring break, MUSE came to the Municipal to preform, and they set off the stage. Nashvill is really known for Rock and Country, we've had tons of artist down here preforming lately.
