Protocol is a well-rounded rock band from Connecticut. Joe (vocals, guitar, bass) and Tyler (guitar), began writing songs together in 2003. Ryan Laney soon joined on keyboard and mandolin, followed by Matt on bass and Emily on drums (and occasionally bass). Their good friend Nick occasionally plays with the band on baritone sax and vocals.
Protocol's song 'Wall of Colors' won the Make A Star November favorite song contest.
Listen to Protocol 'Wall of Colors'
MAS: Congratulations Protocol for your win in the “Favorite Song- Duo or Band’ competition. Your sound is quite melodic and unique. How did your sound develop and do you have a primary songwriter, or is it collaborative?
Protocol: We wanted to hit sort of a classic rock sound without just being a classic rock cover band. Ryan and I write the majority of the songs now (together and separately) with occasional input from Tyler. Ryan and I bring our influences from big, ornate acts like Aerosmith, Queen, and Meat Loaf, as well as from our experience with classical composition. Tyler adds more southern rock influences and some modern rock sounds derived from bands like Dispatch and Weezer.
