Familiar Faces
Familiar Faces, an indie rock ensemble hailing from the sun-soaked landscapes of Southern California, traces its inception to the creative minds of identical twin brothers Sean and Chad Bierman. As the band's lead guitarists, vocalists, and primary songsmiths, Sean and Chad's passion propelled them through years of musical exploration since age 8.
The group's lineup is fortified by Nonso Ikeji, a virtuoso on bass guitar and vocals, and John Tessin, a master of percussion. Nonso crossed paths with Sean and Chad during their time at Cypress Community College, solidifying his role in the band in 2021. Subsequently, "The Bierman Brothers" transitioned into Familiar Faces. John Tessin jumped on board in January 2024. A fateful night at The Whiskey A Go Go solidified his place on the throne.
In November 2023, their original song, “Don’t Stop Us” debuted nationally on SiriusXM Deep Tracks by the legendary, iconic DJ, Jim Ladd. And in December 2023, Familiar Faces won The Jam In The Van, Battle of The Bands LA!
The band recently completed recording nine tracks in collaboration with GRAMMY-winning producer/engineer Erik Zobler. Their music weaves a tapestry of psychedelic rock and indie influences, while their songs resonate with the quintessential experiences of Southern California's youth.
Their unwavering love for music and unwavering dedication to their craft shines through every endeavor, signaling an even brighter future on the horizon.
