Regional Champion for the CMI


Regionally, my favorite band in the CMI is "Strange Faces"! Not only because they are from good old North Cackalacky but because they truly make you want the once Strange Faces of their group to become very familiar. They are a brand new sound with a “Strange Face” - an emerging group whose sounds should be heard from your speakers!

Historically, Strange Faces formed in 2008 in Raleigh, NC. The band was a concept of songwriter Ryan Barnum’s that was realized when two of his former band mates and closest friends from NY moved to Raleigh to make music together again. The lineup consists of Ryan Barnum (Lead Vocals, Guitar, Keyboards), Art Pierce (Drums), and Mark Connor (Bass, Vocals). The band shares a love for vintage instruments and classic recordings, and strive to keep their sound organic and true to their beliefs.


Their sound effects are unique to them and embrace modern technicques while emboding the comfort of traditional soothing rythems. The indie feel to their toons ensures a captivated audience and growth in the mainstream market while the taste of rock gives them the edge necessary to enlist loyal followers.

I challenge you to explore the sounds of “Strange Faces” and see for youself just how comforting a “Strange Face” can be.
