Named after the local
psychiatric institution,
4th Floor hail from
Three Lakes, Wisconsin.
After forming in March
2004 to compete in a
local talent show the
band have gone from
strength to strength,
solidifying their sound
and becoming one of
the states most original
and accomplished acts.
With their heavy sound
and slightly twisted
lyrics, Ryan Wallis
(lead vocals/guitar),
Zach Hales (lead guitar/vocals),
Dan Scheppele (rhythm
guitar/vocals), Tim
Hales (bass), and Mike
Maney (drums) stand
alongside such bands
as Shinedown, Breaking
Benjamin, Disturbed,
Tool, and Mudvayne.
4th Floor have played
over 250 shows in 4
states winning two Battle
of the Bands including
the regional Launchpad
competition and receiving
air play on radio stations
including 94.5 WRJO
and Z104.1 Real Rock.
After recording the
theme for the sports
show Outdoor Frontiers
they entered A440 Studio
and recorded their first
album "Released" to
widespread acclaim.
Their dedicated student
fan base had their dreams
realized when the band
signed a recent deal
to receive air play
at 250 college stations
around the nation. Opening
at The Rave in Milwaukee
for the bands Papa Roach,
Black Stone Cherry,
and Hinder have been
the highlights of their
career. Sean Roberts,
formerly Senior Director
of A&R at TVT Records
and now CEO of Juggernaut
Mgmt, says, "You
guys have what it takes
to make it...and I want
to be there when you
do."
