Serial Joe


Serial Joe was a Canadian band from Newmarket, Ontario which consisted of high school students Ryan Dennis, Ryan Stever, John Davidson and Dan Stadnicki. The group released four studio albums.
Dennis stated that the band's name came from a girl with a speech disorder who would mispronounce the name "Sergio" as "Serial-Joe".

History

They won the 1998 Much Music Video award for best independent video, later becoming the house band on YTV's System Crash. In 1999, the band released their first studio album for Aquarius Records, Face Down, which peaked at No. 47 on the Canadian Albums Chart. The album's first single, "Mistake", gained international airplay. The song was also featured on popular Much Music rock music compilation, Big Shiny Tunes 4, as album's 16th track.
The band won several awards, and performed at Woodstock 1999 in the "emerging artists" tent. In late 2001, Serial Joe released their final album Last Chance , which showcased a more melodic pop/rock approach, in contrast to the band's earlier rap-influenced metal sound. Around 2002, they were dropped from their label and broke up shortly thereafter. Vocalist Ryan Dennis and guitarist Ryan Stever are now part of the hard rock group High Kapitol.
