Flatbed Orange covers the entire rock genre: voicing 90's Alternative melodies, guitar-laden hooks that comprise modern rock songs, all the while keeping the same tenacity you might find in a 70's Garage Rock band. This broad stroke over one genre makes Flatbed Orange a band that will definitely impress the many different colors of Rock fans. Sticking with said genre, I'll let it be known that I would not be surprised to hear a Flatbed Orange song in a Rock Band video game in the future. These guys are making songs as any fan of Metallica or Stone Temple Pilots would want them to; exuding an urgent, no bullshit attitude for their music.


Flatbed Orange formed in Chicago in early 2008 without concern for specified genres or assigned modes of song writing. With organic guitar driven hooks, head nodding rhythms and soulful no frills vocals, the band hopes to break down the barriers of current conventional rock music and add to the buzz already created by the energetic shows it has played in some of Chicago's most well known bars and clubs.
