Biography:

Steinbeck was started by Dan Derks and Adam Morgan in 2001. Although they had many (embarrassing) names before settling on Steinbeck, the band's core has remained the same.

Press:

“(Steinbeck) makes the kind of hard, yet weirdly poppy music that Piebald has been doing a different version of for years. Yet where Piebald goes a little more toward the metal side, Steinbeck clearly veers closer to the pop side.”
New Haven Register

“Steinbeck's "I Think I Need a New Heart" which is a pop punk cluster-fuck just barely keeping the melody and lyrics of the original.”
Surviving the Golden Age

“I Think I Need a New Heart: Steinbeck A pop-punk version that is, ironically, probably the most successful on the whole album and simultaneously original. It totally reinvents the song and kind of reminds me of that Cheap Trick song, "I Want You to Want Me."”
The Monsters Under The Bed Are Not Real

“Steinbeck - I Think I Need A New Heart. 4 stars. They’ve traded in carefully crafted quirk for sloppy punk and it absolutely works. It sounds like pre-Born to Quit Smoking Popes.”
