Bio
Since playing their first show in 1999, under-sung San Francisco locals The Plus Ones have released two full-length albums, three EPs, completed nine national tours, performed a countless number of local shows, and have featured at least fourteen different band members. I think you'll agree, that's a lot of numbers.
The current line-up is comprised of singer-songwriter and bassist Joel Reader (formerly of The Mr. T Experience), long-time drummer Luis Illades (also of Pansy Division), almost-as-long-time guitarist John Speranza and not-at-all-long-time guitarist Luke Powell.
Their sound can be described as smart songs played at great volume. Some people say powerpop, some say indie rock, but the band themselves have been toying with a new phrase: American Britpop, which they define as, "the sound of an American band, trying to sound like a British band trying to sound like an American band."
