Stay Tuned, the self-proclaimed Ultimate Television Rock Tribute Experience, was formed over 3 years ago by lead singer and keyboardist Matt Krahlman. His vision of rearranging the influential television themes of his youth into a completely different context became a reality when drummer / vocalist Fred Donaldson and bassist / vocalist Randy Williams joined Matt for their first rehearsal in a small practice studio just south of Safeco Field. Since then, the band has been musically inseparable and has delighted audiences and fellow musicians alike with a musical experience that can only be described as "... like sausage...". Fred has since left the band to pursue his lifelong dream of guano farming and Stu has joined the band as Stay Tuned's formidable drummer.
Their onstage energy coupled with the emotional connection that audiences have with their eclectic collection of musical material have earned Stay Tuned a growing reputation as one of the NorthWest's premier acts. In addition to performing to enthusiastic crowds up and down the coast, they have been featured on The BJ Shea Experience on 100.7 The Buzz in Seattle, and were nominated for a 2005 Seattle Weekly Music Award for Best Tribute Act. Ian "Prime Time" Sterling of KBSG in Seattle has said about Stay Tuned, "... if these guys were playing and I were sitting there drinking at the bar, I'd think they were the greatest band on earth.".
