| The Congress is a rock and roll machine. Founded in Richmond, Virginia as an open mic hosted by bassist/singer Jonathan Meadows and guitarist Scott Lane, the band was transformed into a live music powerhouse in 2010, planting its feet in Denver, CO and eventually adding drummer Mark Levy. After only a year of touring, the band played a slew of festivals in 2011, including Wakarusa, High Sierra, Jazz Aspen Snowmass, Targhee Fest, and Tall Tree Lake. |
