Recent History Big 90's style alt rock riffs, beats, and hooks from Northampton, MA They play energetic music, original music and creative covers that will make you move.

Recent History is an alternative dance rock band based out of the Northampton area formed by Glen Fant (ex Bang Camaro/ The Fatal Flaw) with Steve Tremblay and Ryan Anderson (RSK Band). One of the goals of forming the band was to play fun 90’s style alt rock with dance beats with no apologies for big riffs and guitar solos. After being cooped up at home with their instruments, the boys of Recent History just want to party and dance the blues away. With influences like Smashing Pumpkins,, ZZ Top, and Talking Heads, Recent History aims to have fun, dance, rock out, and maybe also talk about books, art, and culture.

“Slow Down”, the band’s first single, features big blues guitar riffs over melodic beats and haunting synth pads. It’s a song about being falsely accused of a crime. It begins with Glen singing “I can explain everything” but as the song unfolds it becomes clear that there is much about this crime that can’t be explained. Recent History plans on releasing new singles in the coming months so please stay tuned for more.
