Been Stellar are a rock and roll band from New York City.

Their debut album, Scream From New York, NY, released two weeks ago and has been playing in our heads ever since. Debuts are tough. It’s the first impression, the first handshake and nod and hug and embrace, and embrace they do. If you haven’t yet, please read our long and in-depth interview with the band, here. If you haven’t heard the album yet, listen to it here. Then, finally, listen to what they - Sam Slocum, Nico Brunstein, Nando Dale, Sky Knapp, and Laila Wayans - were listening to while making it.

‘The five of us as individuals listen to very different music from each other. This collection of songs, however, are what we listen to ad bond over, together for the most part.’
