The Greeting Committee
Band Overland Park Formed 2014
The Greeting Committee formed in 2014 in Overland Park. The Greeting Committee has 12 chart appearances on 10 radio countdowns from 3 stations on RockLists, spanning 2016–2025. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Hands Down”, which appears on 3 lists with a best position of #8. The station that charted The Greeting Committee most often is 90.9 The Bridge (Kansas City, MO), with 9 appearances. The artist’s biggest year on year-end countdowns was 2016.
The Greeting Committee came out of Overland Park, Kansas, in 2014, a crew from the Kansas City suburbs with a knack for bright, bruised indie rock. Addison Sartino sings and plays guitar, Brandon Yangmi plays guitar, Pierce Turcotte plays bass, and Austin Fraser drummed with them until 2021. Their break came through the local airwaves: in 2015 Kansas City's KRBZ started spinning "Hands Down", and people started paying attention.
The song lives on the EP It's Not All That Bad, and it's a lovely thing: chiming guitars, a sweet-and-sour vocal and a chorus that sounds like a shrug turning into a confession. Another EP followed before the debut album, This Is It, landed in October 2018. Dandelion came out in September 2021, and Everyone's Gone And I Know I'm The Cause followed in June 2024, a title that suggests the band hasn't lost its gift for the wry, self-lacerating hook.
