The Fuss

The Fuss is a DIY Indie-Rock group from Des Moines, Iowa (est. 2015). Combining guitar-centric elements of ‘60s garage-rock, poignant lyricism and buoyant vocal melodies, they’ve crafted an engaging and energetic live set with a sound that’s been described as “sonically adventurous*” and “severely catchy**”. Beginning as the solo project of songwriter Joey Lyons, The Fuss now features Matt Nelson, Ben Waldschmitt, and Nick Lucs and has set itself apart in the Des Moines music scene. They have released two self-produced EP’s to date - “One” and “Two”. Tracks from these works have been featured in numerous volumes of “Life as a Minestrone” (a French indie music blog and series of compilation albums). The band has received numerous noteworthy acknowledgments from local organizations such as the Des Moines Music Coalition (song included in the CarpeDM Mix, Vol. III, featured at SXSW Des Moines Embassy) and the Iowa Music Project (song included in The Iowa Music Project, released on Maximum Ames Records). The band has quickly built a loyal local following and aims to expand its fan-base through touring in support of their forthcoming, self-produced record, Self-Titled. *(Franck Zeisel, Benzine Mag) **(Ben Kieffer, IPR Host of River to River & Java Blend) D.I.Y.
