Since 2002 Withstand has been rocking the East Coast with a blend of original hard rock and party ready covers. Starting off with a focus on original material, Withstand released 3 CD's on the Zen Wang Bingo label between 2002 and 2007 with tours to support the music. Withstand has shared the stage with 100's of bands including and ranging from musical heavyweights Trivium to the radio friendly Chris Daughtry. Taking the stage at auditoriums, night clubs and music festivals, Withstand has performed in over 60 venues in 24 cities. Over the past two years Withstand has focused on performing a cover music show across the Carolina's that stands out among others. Still holding on to their original music roots as well, which are scattered through every show earned vocalist Todd Brown Best Male Vocals In Rock at the 2010 Carolina Music Awards. With a high energy live performance, an impressive light display and mix of popular rock / hip hop DJ grooves between sets, Withstand parties (yeah, it's more than a show - it's a party) have attracted a huge crowd of fans at every location the musical act performs. Book a Withstand party at your venue!
