An emerging female-fronted alternative-rock band, The Dreaming Society’s music has been featured on popular television shows such as MTV’s “True Life” and “Teen Mom”. Formerly known as The Patchwork Quilt Fallacy, The Dreaming Society’s song “Slip Through the Static” from their first full-length album “®evloution” won them the 2010 OurStage.com opening slot for national acts Hanson and A Rocket to the Moon, at the House of Blues in San Diego. The band is currently working on their next full-length album which will be released in Winter 2012.
“Imagine the big wall of sound a la Smashing Pumpkins, but without Billy Corgan’s self absorption and big shiny head. [Shelah] ..is her own woman with her own protean voice: temptress; gamine; broken hearted” (Domenick Moore, Shinbone Magazine). “You’ll see Shelah’s ethereal vocals often compared to artists such as Sarah McLachlan, and her voice certainly has that broken Irish beauty, but oh so much more power. It is a heartbreaking counterpoint to Karl’s relentless guitar that brings you to your knees” (Kara Kumpel, of Anime Insider).
Defining their line-up— which currently includes vocalist/pianist Shelah Kelso, guitarist Karl Strauss, guitarist Angie, bassist Nicki Tedesco and drummer Christopher Schnack, The Dreaming Society continues to move forward, gaining exposure to reach their goal of touring the world.
