Formed in the city of Hollywood, California, in 2006, the dynamic and colossal sound of Neptune’s Favor is driven by the raw aggression of rock and a strong sense of melody.  Powerful vocals with memorable lyrics and solid hooks enhance and embellish the music’s intensity, presence, and stature.  The band draws their influence from a wide range of classic alternative rock bands such as Pearl Jam, The Smashing Pumpkins, Concrete Blonde, and The Foo Fighters.  In keeping with the tradition of these bands and rock’s timeless in-your-face attitude, Neptune’s Favor plays their music like they mean it.  Jumping, swaying, grooving, beating their instruments into submission, all four members work up an on-stage musical frenzy that excites and captivates their audience.

After playing numerous shows in the Los Angeles and Hollywood area with various sit-in drummers, from late 2006 to early 2007, Neptune’s Favor solidified the position in March 2007 and immediately forged ahead bringing their bold and energetic act to clubs such as 14 Below (Santa Monica), Safari Sam’s (Hollywood), The Knitting Factory (Hollywood), Mr. T’s Bowl (Los Angeles),  Club Good Hurt (West Los Angeles), Air Conditioned Supper Club (Venice), Zen Sushi (Silverlake), The Cat Club (Hollywood), Relax Bar (Hollywood), The Airliner (Los Angeles), and an April residency at the Kibitz Room (Los Angeles).  

With a firm identity and a clear sense of direction, Neptune’s Favor set out to record their first self-titled EP in October of 2007.  Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Will Kennedy (Black Kites, The Russians), the four song EP asserts the band’s mean and gritty sonic approach.  From the explosiveness of the opening anthem-like track, “Emergency,” to the forceful burst of “Static” to the driving and dynamic “Sleeping Here” and the celebratory feel of “May,” Neptune’s Favor truly captures the backbone and passion of a band always resolute in defining what it means to rock.

As Neptune’s Favor gears up for 2008, their focus and determination remains intact.  After a successful CD release show in December 2007, Neptune’s Favor now sets its sights on presenting their brand of rock to a much larger audience.  With new shows continuing to be booked, new contacts continuing to be sought out, and a mini west coast tour a few months away, Neptune’s Favor eagerly anticipates attracting new fans  building upon an already rock solid foundation.
