Biography

Known for high energy shows, We have over +5 hrs of music. Tearing up House of Blues and Double Doors Chicago to hoppin' in a SUV
to play hot spots like the relaxing Mackinaw Vineyard playing among wine drinkers and dancers. Roll on over to a double header Homecoming gig in College town. Pack it up & off to playing a top an 8 ft flatbed rig, in the middle of the country, entertaining 200 overnight celebrating guests.

Name it. We' played it.

The Unemployed Architects. With a name like that we ought to be busy doing something with our free time. Our set list consists of our Originals with a nice full blend of covers. We have over 5 1/2 hours of music that we play. 4 hour sets? We've be known for them. Two Door Cinema Club? Pearl Jam? Smashing Pumpkins? Cool. We've got you. We have a range of sounds. From Atlas Genius and LCD SoundSystem to the smooth dance-floor jams of Pharrell, Bob Marley and Gorillaz. Indie rock likes of Kings of Leon, White Stripes, and Strokes. Oh you like to sip 'tea' in a folk'y way? We rock some Mumford. DMB, Local Natives. We respect the old school greats - Tom Petty, Billy Idol, Michael Jackson, Elvis, Johnny Cash and more. This eclectic group with two different singer-songwriters come together to form something that has to be seen and felt.
