Greenwheel
Band United States Formed 1999
Greenwheel formed in 1999 in the United States. Greenwheel has 5 chart appearances on 5 radio countdowns from 5 stations on RockLists, spanning 2002. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Breathe”, which appears on 4 lists with a best position of #68. The station that charted Greenwheel most often is 89X (Detroit, MI / Windsor, ON), with 1 appearance. The artist’s biggest year on year-end countdowns was 2002.
Greenwheel came together in St. Charles, Missouri, in a local record shop, when high school bandmates Ryan Jordan, Brandon Armstrong, Andrew Dwiggins, Douglas Randall and Marc Wanninger decided to make a go of it. They cycled through names, first Hindsight and then Soma Holiday, and an early self-titled record earned them attention around town before they went quiet, surfacing only for the odd show.
Soma Holiday, the name recycled as an album title in 2002, is their calling card on rock radio: "Breathe" is a big, brooding alternative rock anthem with an aching chorus and guitars that swell like a storm rolling in, and "Shelter" follows the same template of quiet tension and cathartic release.
