The Day Traders showcased at A&R Online.

"If the Fountains of Wayne, Squeeze, and the Bee Gees had a baby, it would sound like The Day Traders."

Upon listening to our debut record, you may ask, how could this slick, polished, big league-sounding pop record just appear out of the blue? Questions abound.

Are The Day Traders merely the concoction of boy band impresario Lou Perlman? Did The Day Traders hire The Matrix to write and produce all their hooks? No, and no. But we didn’t get to this point over night, and it hasn’t been easy. We learned a lot from our experiences playing in a little known Connecticut-based band called The Dent. Perhaps you heard of us? No? I didn’t think so.

The Dent certainly had its moments, and as a band, we created some really beautiful music that touched a lot of people. But after nearly 10 years together, we all got a little weary, and a little restless. And a divorce ensued.

I think this is the point where many people would have quit the biz. And I can certainly say that there were moments when, feeling defeated, the lure of “Corporate America” loomed large. The only thing that kept me going was the (nagging) fact that I was still writing some good music, and I knew Jeff was too.
So in the wake of The Dent’s break-up, Jeff and I, two of the main songwriters for the band, began casually experimenting with each other’s song ideas - ideas that remained dormant for a year as we had spent nearly every waking moment recording and promoting The Dent’s final album, prophetically titled “Farewell.”
One thing led to another, and now, a year after The Dent’s demise - with a ton of help from the almost frustratingly talented producer and multi instrumentalist, and songwriter, and engineer, and part-time porn star – Saul Zonana – we’ve released our debut album as The Day Traders. Take that Corporate America!

Those familiar with The Dent’s music will likely be surprised by The Day Traders. Gone are the retro-string sections and the melancholy rainy day ballads both of which defined our unique sound. In its place are fun, polished, passionate pop/rock songs, made to be heard blasting from car stereos on Top 40 and rock radio stations. Saul really helped us do what we’ve always just wanted to do: Pop Out! So that’s where the story ends, and begins. To learn more about The Dent, go to www.dentmusic.com
