Carousel†has been a mainstay of the Pittsburgh rock scene since its very first show in 2011, sharing the stage with local†rock, metal and punk bands as well†as touring acts such as Mount Carmel, Purling Hiss and Disappears, all the while†demonstrating an earth-shaking ability to rock with each and every live†performance.††Carousel's†Wheeler†and†Leger†(drummer for Pittsburgh indie-rock icons Karl Hendricks Trio) were previously members of noise-rock trio Magic†Wolf, while†second guitarist†Chris Tritschler†also plays in the PGH metal band Lady Beast. With†Carousel's strong pedigree, instantly-memorable two-guitar†harmonized lines (not so much like Iron Maiden, more like Wishbone Ash or Thin Lizzy) and rhythmic†swing (or "Bill Ward-isms"), the band can easily hold the†interest of punk and metal fans, but add in the charismatic vocals of†Wheeler, and it also fits right in at a local yinzer bar. †The band's name is drawn from the†futuristic sci-fi movie "Logan's Run"†and the device in the film that terminates young citizens once they reach the ripe age of 30.†Carousel†is the epitome of guitar rock. Based solely on the buzz from the successful self-release of†Tears of Stone, their†debut 12" EP,†Carousel†was invited to join the Tee Pee Records family. †Soon to be armed with a new full-length LP,†Carousel†now looks to make its move into the national spotlight.
