About

Strangers Die Everyday is a haunting 5 piece instrumental outfit
hailing from Denver, CO. They have recently relocated to Portland, OR
to thrive in the lush dark beauty of the pacific northwest. Consisting
of violin, viola, cello, electric bass and drums, they combine equal
parts romantic melodies alonside tragic downpours of charged emotion.
Strangers Die Everyday passionate, powerful melodies that have the
tendency to ignite into a breathtaking flurry and frenzy. their live
intensity has proven that they are every bit as striking as their name
implies.

And the local press just can't stop talking already:

"As if there isn't enough incredible musicianship emerging from
Portland, our city is now kidnapping foreign talent as well. Strangers
Die Every Day recently relocated here from Colorado, and these kids
can play! Their music is rich with haunting cellos and violins, their
sound is a mesh between classical and goth along the lines of Black
Heart Procession and Godspeed You! Black Emperor. The thing that is
most amazing about the band's live performance is how young its
members appear to be, and how effortlessly they play. I strongly urge
Portlanders to familiarize themselves with these strangers."
DEVAN COOK, WILLAMETTE WEEK

"Most intriguing for me will be the early set by Strangers Die Every
Day. Currently finishing up their soon-to-be-released album, and
boasting new material for this show, this
orchestral-strings-plus-drums group creates beautiful, ominous
compositions." JW, MERCURY

We have shared the stage with acts that include: Saul Williams, Adrian
Belew, Thurston Moore, Rasputina, The Appleseed Cast, Tristeza, Munly
& The Lee Lewis Harlots, et cetera.

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know."
Thank you for your friendship! Musical greetings from Munich/Germany!
