Past_members =An intensely broad spectrum of sound and mood come with the music of Stationary Odyssey. Aaron Tanner and Brett Siler toe the boundaries of modern music with a fierce devotion to the homegrown DIY ethics of their Midwestern roots. While not entirely avant-garde or wholly conventional, Stationary Odyssey carries the passion and honesty of folk music in a package composed of the heady aspects of trip-hop and the explosive bombast of indie-rock.
