Herman Astro is a Milwaukee-based band whose current lineup was solidified in 2009. Stepbrothers Zachary Pluer (vocals/acoustic guitar) and Cody Calderon (drums), joined childhood friends Eric LeMieux (electric guitar) and Adam Dosemagen (bass), in what proved to be a powerful assemblage of their diverse musical backgrounds. Characterized by locked in drums and bass (funk, jazz and latin influen
ces), gritty and riffy guitar hooks, and buttery, deeply soulful vocals, Herman Astro has created a sound with rich dynamics and intensely emotive qualities.

In December of 2009, Herman Astro recorded their first, self-titled EP at Bobby Peru Recording in South Milwaukee, WI. The strong reception of their single “Sambawete” (named “Catchiest Song of the Year” by 88.9 Radio Milwaukee) and the buzz surrounding their live performances, allowed the band to play at venues such as Turner Hall Ballroom, High Noon Saloon and the “Emerging Artist Series” at Summerfest in support of national acts such as Fitz and The Tantrums, Kings Go Forth, Orgone, The Constellations and Milwaukee-legend Paul Cebar.

Chico is the debut full-length album from Herman Astro, released in December of 2011. Tracked live, in a log-room, Chico captures the deep dynamics that has quickly become emblematic of Herman Astro’s sound and takes the listener through the development of Herman Astro’s sound in their sophomore year. Shortly after the release of "Chico", Herman Astro had the opportunity to perform at Milwaukee's historic theater, The Pabst Theater, in support of Alabama Shakes. more >>>
When Nick Duarte moved to Fort Collins, he found a thriving music scene. Hence, in the summer of 2008 the search began for musicians to start some kind of a rock project in town. He found Craig Babineau through an online ad and the two began working out some songs that Nick had prepared. Rather than adding another guitar player, they searched for other stringed instruments to flesh out the sound. Upon finding their cellist, Amy Morgan, they knew they were onto something developing a signature sound. The band still needed a bassist however, and auditioned many until choosing Josh Freed as the perfect fit. more >>>
