SomeKindaWonderful is an American rock band from Cleveland, Ohio, consisting of Jordy Towers (vocals), Ben Schigel (drums), Justin Andres (bass and keyboard) and Sarah Dryer (backing vocals, percussion).[1] Towers, a singer-songwriter formerly signed to Interscope Records, formed the band in January 2013 during a visit to Olmsted Falls, Ohio after meeting and befriending local musicians Matthew Gibson and Schigel at a bar, eventually heading to a studio and recording the song "Reverse".[2][3]

The band later signed to Downtown Records and released their self-titled debut studio album on June 16, 2014.[4] "Reverse" was released as their debut single and garnered initial support from Los Angeles modern rock station KROQ, eventually peaking at number 18 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart.[5] The band went on a US tour supporting New Politics and Bad Suns in Fall 2014. Spring 2015 they did a US Headlining tour, "Burn It Up Tour," supported by Marc Scibilia.
