Meet the band
With a distinct sound poised to redefine the music scene in Detroit, Moravian is known for its electrifying live performances. Their music - a fusion of catchy melodies, vibrant rhythms, powerful vocals, and dynamic guitars - draws inspiration from the raw energy of garage rock and pop, creating a unique sonic experience.
Moravian's music is more than just sound. It's a collection of life-inspired stories and scenarios, each song a conduit for conveying raw emotion and basking in exaggerated attitude. Lead vocalist Alex Christ's passionate performances often leave him floored, a testament to the depth of feeling he brings to the stage, inviting the audience to share the emotional journey.
The band is powered by Blake Potvin and Tomi Baumeister's instrumental prowess, which skillfully blends shredding and grooving on their six strings. Coby Valead masterfully handles the bass, a driving force in the band. At the same time, the passionate Rico Velez on drums holds the band together with his rhythmic energy, creating a dynamic and captivating performance. The band was formed in 2023 in Detroit, Michigan.
Inspiration derived from the timeless familiarity of The Strokes and Arctic Monkeys' sounds, combined with the new-era rock essence of Quarters of Change and The Backseat Lovers, Moravian continues to hone an approach towards their own unique present-day pop-rock sound while paying homage to the sounds of the past.
