Age Nowhere

Identical-twin brothers Matthew and Daniel Spaugy first met Paul Monnin when he became their next-door neighbor in the spring of 1998. As teenagers, they each began playing the guitar and started co-writing songs, eventually adding a drummer and forming a spirited-but-short-lived high-school rock band. Upon graduation, the three friends moved on with their lives and spent the next ten-plus years on informal hiatus.

When Matt, Dan, and Paul reunited in the Dayton, Ohio area in the spring of 2017, they founded Age Nowhere with a musical vision nearly two decades in the making. The band applies rock ‘n roll, country, and blues-driven Americana stylings to songs that venture from harmonious and energetic to ambient and haunting.

Monnin, the band’s primary lead vocalist and songwriter, plays rhythm guitar and serves as the band’s de-facto front man. The Spaugy brothers dial in guitar tones ranging from unmistakably-classic to entirely-experimental; sharing responsibilities as lead guitarists, rhythm players, and multi-instrumentalists. Bassist Matt Terry and drummer Seth Gilliam motivate the foundation of each song, providing an intuitive low-end and subtle rhythmic accents. Terry and Gilliam also provide evocative backing and change-of-pace lead vocals for the group.

After releasing their debut single, "Dopamine," in 2018; the band followed up with their debut album, "Airport Sounds," in 2019. The album was recorded at Reel Love Recording Company in Dayton, OH and was produced by Patrick Himes, whose studio continues to crank out a distinct collection of releases by Dayton-based artists.
