The Melders is a punk rock-n-roll band from Portland, OR formed in June of 2021 with Luke Valley on vocals and guitar, Guil Halstead on guitar, Marcus Irland on bass and Matt Danger on drums.
When COVID hit, it led to the demise of Luke and Guil’s 16 year project My New Vice but they weren’t ready to hang it up. They contacted long time friends and fellow musicians Marc and Matt. They knew it’d be a great fit; you know who you’re working with, what you’re going to get and that everyone can get along.
It was time to get to work and see what could happen working together: definitely a punk/rock n’ roll band. They had joked initially by calling it Angry Springsteen but it has evolved into much more. Nearly two years later their first release, self-titled album The Melders from No Pants Records and Horns Up Records, is available online at multiple streaming sites and they’re actively playing around the Pacific Northwest.
