Dualistics are an indie/alt-rock band formed in 2006 consisting of Jimmy Stofer (bass) Charley Hine (guitar, rhodes), Tyler Despres (guitar, rhodes) and Scott Russell (drums). They currently reside in and gig around Denver, Colorado. Dualistics initially started out with Jimmy and Scott writing and performing songs under the moniker while recruiting their friends Charley and Tyler to play the guitar at gigs. The chemistry was evident from the beginning and the decision was made to include Charley and Tyler as official members of Dualistics after just two live shows. Dualistics cite a diverse set of influences including 12 Rods, Self, King's X, Wilco, Pixies, Mars Volta and Ben Folds Five. Their sound could be described as groove oriented pop/rock with an indie/90s alternative edge.
