Sleeping Bag is an American alternative/indie rock band based out of Bloomington, Indiana, United States.[1]
History[edit]
Sleeping Bag formed in March 2010, when drummer and singer Dave Segedy began playing with bassist David Woodruff and guitarist Lewis Rogers. Segedy had previously performed as a solo artist under the name Whoa Bro Awesome, adding guitar parts for the act's 2008 eponymous EP with Musical Family Tree.[2] In 2011, Sleeping Bag released the self-titled Sleeping Bag through Joyful Noise Recordings; a limited number of digital downloads included a literal sleeping bag.[3] The album featured the single "Slime".[4]
The band’s sophomore album, Women Of Your Life, was released in November 2012.[5]
For their third album, Deep Sleep, Dave Segedy enlisted guitarist Tyler Smith and bassist Glenn Meyers; the record was released on Joyful Noise in 2014.[6]
Sleeping Bag has released two collaborations with West Virginia-based Rozwell Kid: Dreamboats, released on Old Flame Records and Jurassic Pop Records in 2013,[7] and Dreamboats 2: A Real Chill Sequel in 2020.[8] Both EPs were co-written and performed by Segedy and Rozwell Kid’s Jordan Hudkins.[9]
