 Quick facts about Congress
There is more than one artist named Congress: 1. Congress was a Belgian hardcore band formed in 1993, recognized as a leader of the h8000 scene. They introduced a musical style known as “Edgemetal”, a combination of the straight edge/drug-free lifestyle and death metal music. Their most acclaimed and known record is certainly Angry with the Sun, released in 1998, which allowed them to tour in the US with bands like All Out War. Since their debut, Congress are signed on Goodlife Recordings, along with labelmates Liar or Deformity (also from the h8000 scene). The band eventually split in late 2006. 2. The Congress, initially formed by guitarist Scott Lane and vocalist/guitarist Jonathan Meadows, blends feel-good American music and authentic Southern R&B to produce a fresh Rock sound in an industry of puzzling sub-genres. The group’s sound is carried by the true strength of Meadows’ tenor voice, which glides over a decidedly modern groove with a nod to the vintage Virginia traditions that seep from their lyrics. Meadows and Lane have both toured extensively throughout the east coast but were drawn to Denver due to it’s proximity to the Rocky Mountains and it’s burgeoning music scene. Lane relocated to Denver in 2008; Meadows followed a year later in September of 2009, only after Lane had convinced Meadows that he had found a rhythm section in Damon Scott (drums) and Dwight Thompson (bass) that fit the vision they collectively desired.
