Con Etiquette

The music industry has no need for one-dimensional talent. In a world where most listeners make a decision about whether or not to give an artist their time in a matter of seconds, musicians need something utterly unique in order to stand out. Con Etiquette, hailing from Connecticut, deliver just that with their fiery approach to music. Their sound runs the gamut from melodic punk to blistering alternative rock, and it’s all tied together with passionate vocals conveying a perspective on life earned through hard times and bad decisions. Con Etiquette is willing to admit what so many other artists try to help us ignore, and that is the fact that none of us will make it out of this life alive. The band recognizes the fleeting nature of our collective existence and offer comfort to listeners. For them, music is an outlet that makes their own time on this planet a little bit better. If it does the same for anyone else, that’s great, but they have no delusions of grandeur or success. Their mission is to create music that sets their souls on fire, to burn away all the pain and worries of the world, even if only for a few minutes at a time.
