About The High-Back Chairs

The High-Back Chairs were formed in Washington, DC in 1989 by Jeff Nelson (drums and vocals, ex-Minor Threat and Three), Peter Hayes (vocals, guitar), Charles Steck (vocals, bass, ex-Velvet Monkees) and Jim Spellman (guitar, Velocity Girl). Their sound reflected a move away from the harder-edged underground music of their previous bands to more of a pop sensibility. The band played locally for the most part and released an LP Of Two Minds and an EP Curiosity & Relief on Jeff's Dischord Records. In 1991, Jim left the band to play full-time with Velocity Girl, and was replaced by Charles Bennington. In August 1992 Jeff also left the band and The High-Back Chairs continued with a new drummer before breaking up in 1993.
