San Diego's The Stereotypes, formed in 2001 by John Finkbiner(vocals) and Mike Kamoo(guitar), have a classic sound that mines late-60's jangly psych-pop, indie-garage-rock, and 80's alternative with a post-punk D.I.Y. aesthetic. The band has had a varied lineup throughout the years including musicians Dante Conti(guitar), Tim Hines(bass), Steve Blake(keyboards), Charlie Mcree(drums), Matt Pawluk(drums), Bobby Shaddox(drums), Keizo Amakawa(guitar), and Chris Marstellar(guitar). The band released it's first EP(1-red) to much critical acclaim. The Stereotypes, with their infectious guitar pop melodies, soon found themselves opening shows for the legendary Buzzcocks, Spoon, Supergrass, among others. The Stereotypes second release(2-brown) ended up on John D. Luerssen's Billboard/ Rolling Stone Top 10 2004: "Garage-punk fireworks and Aussie-like Rickenbacker pop collide with exhilarating results." On the bands 3rd effort (3-yellow) The Stereotypes expanded their sound and created a more diversified collection of songs. With classics like “Emily and “Til We Meet Again", critics offered the band it's most favorable reviews to date. The Stereotypes released their fourth album(4-green) in the spring of 2007 and 5 (black and white) in Jan. 2008. Both to much critical praise and attention in Europe. The band is currently working on "6" slated for release in Fall 2008 and a vinyl ep entitled "Orange" this summer. The Stereotypes music has appeared in Coleman (outdoors) tv ads, ABC's "Kyle XY" and "Big Shots", as well as, Fox TV's "Bones".
