Stanley Ross

Welcome to stanleyross.com

Sample Image Stanley Ross is the moniker for Chicago based songwriter Nicholas Meiers. After getting Stanley Ross going in 2004 with a split seven inch vinyl release and quick tour of the west coast, Stanley Ross was put somewhat on the shelf to play bass in Love Story in Blood Red, and for Devin Davis. As those projects slowed, in 2007 Stanley Ross wrote and recorded the full length debut "Favorites" which was released 01/10/08. The reviews of Favorites from friends and the press have been positive (see press section of this EPK), but without a label, management, or sweaty van 9 months a year, there's really no way to know if a larger audience agrees. Stanley Ross recorded a follow up to "Favorites" called "Here With Me" that is scheduled for release in 08/2009. The past few years have included many regional shows, one west-coast tour, a show in Brooklyn, and an appearance in Ireland. The "bands played with" list includes Holy Fuck, Br. Danielson, Elf Power, A Place to Bury Strangers, Jeffrey Lewis, and Okkervil River. "Favorites" and "Here With Me" were recorded and co-produced by Kris Poulin who's credits include Pinback, Will Oldham, Smog, and Jim O'Rourke. Also, Nicholas Meiers has contributed to some great projects over the past few years that very few have heard of, namely: Harbor Lights [PowerRecordings.com], Jitney [RockProper.com], Kaspar Hauser [KasparHauserMusic.net], Last Cannibals [PowerRecordings.com], and Soft Jolts.
