State Society

Featuring a mixture of musical influences and backgrounds ranging from blues to rock to pop rock and alternative, State Society shows no limitations with their writing ability and style. Formed in September 2011 State Society has broken the stigma of today's repetitive commercial/pop rock genre. Remaining true to the set objective of their project, the band has created 'easy listening positive music' for their fans. With music influenced by bands such as Dave Mathews Band, Foo Fighters, The Temper Trap, U2, The Narrow, Coldplay and more, State Society mixes various flavours of the rock genre and a 'feel good' element seamlessly together. The vocals are a mixture of choral multiples including a call to anthem in their lyrics that have a definite social conscience. The humble band are in it for the love of music and as cliché as that sounds, it truly resonates in the way they interact with anybody come into contact with. In the middle of recording their debut album this band succeeded in playing a countless number of shows in their club tour across South Africa between 2012 and 2013. State Society is preparing to start a new chapter. Their debut album, 'This Life', is out now and available at all shows and digitally. They released it independently as a testament to all their hard work cementing their position in local music landscape. The latest album, "Tall Tales & Fiction" depicts a new era in State Society’s writing, reinventing themselves without losing their positivity. The album tells a story of finding oneself in the midsts of human chaos. Tales of youth, reflection, self awareness and a journey into the human condition is what the listener can expect. The title influenced from the social norm of the 21st century, depicts the consciousness of the human condition like never before.
