Dart Brothers

The Dart Brothers, a six-member band from Ithaca, New York, have built a significant following in Central New York with their unique fusion of original rock and roll and alt-country music. They define their musical style as 'alt-country rock.' With strong melodies, passionate vocal arrangements, soulful leads, and a rock-solid rhythm section, they create music that explores themes of relationships, love, and the world around us. Their music is reminiscent of the heartfelt passion found in alt-rock and alt-country bands like REM, the Jayhawks, Dawes, and Wilco. They dropped their debut album Strangest Wavelength in 2020—a collection that captures all the raw energy and polish they’d been perfecting since early rehearsals. back in 2015. Their second record, Lovers Motel, was released in 2024. Both albums were nominated for Best Americana record at the Syracuse Music Awards (Sammy’s).
