Editor's note

Safetysuit, Chicago's earnest rock band

A Chicago band known for straightforward, melodic rock songs like 'Never Stop' and 'Wherever You Go'.

If you want to get what Safetysuit does, start with 'Never Stop' and 'Wherever You Go'. They're the clearest examples of that no-frills, heartfelt sound they've always had.

Safetysuit's music sticks around because it's uncomplicated and direct. Songs like 'Never Stop' from their 2008 debut 'Life Left to Go' have a plainspoken earnestness that feels genuine. They never chased trends, just kept writing midtempo rock that connects without fuss.

They formed in Chicago in 2002 and put out 'Life Left to Go' in 2008. After a lineup shift in 2012, they kept releasing albums like 'The Phoenix' and 'Yardsale' through the 2010s. Their sound settled into that melodic, steady rock you hear on 'Wherever You Go' and 'Looking Up'.

Archive material and source history

Safetysuit formed in Chicago in 2002 with Doug Brown, Marc Burcham, Dave Garofalo, and Josh Day. They released their debut album 'Life Left to Go' in 2008, which included the single 'Never Stop.' That song got some attention for its straightforward, earnest feel.

Their second album 'Again and Again' came out in 2010. Over the next several years, they put out more records like 'The Phoenix' in 2014 and 'Yardsale' in 2018. The lineup shifted a bit after Garofalo left in 2012, with Trevor Hurst joining on drums.

Songs like 'Wherever You Go,' 'Looking Up,' and 'Life In The Pain' show the kind of midtempo, melodic rock they settled into. There was a minor stir in 2011 when they played a political fundraiser, but it didn't really change much about how people heard their music.
