About The SIDE DEAL

The SIDE DEAL began as a collaboration of four artists from Southern California drawn together by a passion for great music. After years of independent, successful careers, Charlie Colin (Train), Stan Frazier (Sugar Ray), Joel Owen and Scott Owen (PawnShop kings) decided to form a new band several years ago after having known each other for decades. Soon thereafter they discovered the transcendent musical bond of sound and synergy (surpassing even their former projects), which has led to an accelerated creative output and deep friendship.

Since forming, The SIDE DEAL has performed at multiple events showcasing their signature four-part vocal harmony and modern rock approach. Recent gigs include the 2017 and 2018 Sundance Film Festivals, performing the National Anthem at a 2018 Oklahoma City Thunder NBA playoff game, backing Alice Cooper for the Jesse Rees Foundation Annual Charity event, headlining the opening night of the 2018 Newport Beach Film Festival with special guest Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, and headlining The Coach House earlier this year.

Charlie Colin is a two-time Grammy award winner with three Billboard Top 10 Singles and three Platinum records. Stan Frazier is a two-time No. 1 hit songwriter with four Billboard Top 10 singles and two Platinum records. Scott and Joel Owen were recently named by Rolling Stone Magazine as one of “The 10 New Artists You Need to Know” following their sixth independent record release.

Collectively, The SIDE DEAL members have sold over 20 million albums worldwide, garnered over 230 million views on YouTube, and performed 5,000+ shows worldwide to a cumulative audience of more than 6.5 million people.

Their live set includes familiar and revamped renditions of their global hits including Train’s “Drops of Jupiter,” “Calling All Angels,” and “Meet Virginia,” and Sugar Ray’s “Fly,” “Someday,” and “Every Morning,” alongside new The SIDE DEAL originals such as “Burn the Ships” and “SOS.”

The SIDE DEAL is currently in the studio working on new material produced by former Talking Heads guitarist Jerry Harrison.

The SIDE DEAL’s debut release is set to coincide with their concert at the Irvine Barclay Theatre.
