Bio
Named for its reluctant leader, this band is a continuation of the decades-long collaboration between Simeon Berkley and Robbie Breitweiser, lifetime residents of Durham, NC- the "City of Medicine." The two have been hanging out and playing since the hardcore matinee days of the mid-80s, and have been called everything from "the Fagen and Becker of Parkwood" (their old neighborhood) to "a Captain and Tennille for the new millenium."

Press
“ Singer/ guitarist Simeon Berkley's namesake quartet has a talent for texture. They amble over ringing tangles of distortion and crashing cymbals to throwdown with a "PBR Streetgang," and luxuriate in the wavering dreamy shimmer of "Time in the City of Medicine." They bust out bristling, irresistible power pop reminiscent of Possum Dixon for "Last Call Queen." With each look, Simeon moves with lingering, unhurried grace and supple charm. Alluring hooks scrupulously coat the noisy spates of post-punk angularity.
