Band Of The Week

 
DAZR (pronounced “day-zer”) is a modern American hard rock band from Greenville, South Carolina. Formed in early 2022, they are part of a new wave of bands reviving the raw, classic sound of 1970s–80s rock.
 
The band was founded by guitarist Grant Hendrix along with bassist Matthew Shranko at Clemson University.
 
DAZR’s sound is rooted in classic hard rock and glam metal, drawing inspiration from bands like Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, and Mötley Crüe

Their music emphasizes a stripped-down, high-energy approach—avoiding heavy studio effects like autotune or backing tracks in favor of a more authentic, live feel.
 
They released their self-titled debut EP in 2025, featuring tracks like “Unsatisfied,”  “Tough,” and “Can’t Take It Anymore.” Their music quickly gained attention online and in rock media, with praise for its authenticity and strong songwriting.
 
Their new single "Another Lie" was released in February 2026. Their debut album "Do Or Die" will be released on May 6th 2026.
