Who is Dispatch ?

[Weezman]

Boston's Dispatch was comprised of Brad Corrigan, Pete Heimbold, and Chad Urmston. The band debuted in 1996 with Silent Steeples, and returned a year later with Bang Bang. Both albums displayed the trio's three-part harmonies and cheeky, college-friendly mix of Barenaked Ladies-style acoustic pop and folk-rock with some reggae and funk influences. June 2000 saw the issue of Four-Day Trials, a fan-friendly album of first takes and live favorites; the album featured a jammy take on the Beastie Boys' "Root Down." Who Are We Living For? followed that October, and was marked by a protest song vibe to go with the normal round of good-time grooves. By this point, Dispatch had built a sizable East Coast following with university gigs and a strong Internet presence. The buzz secured Dispatch some national modern rock airplay of the reggae-tinged single "Open Up." The band returned in 2001 with Gut the Van, which enjoyed national distribution through the Digital Club Network online store. Issued in November 2001, the double-disc release showcased Dispatch's energetic live act for its growing audience. ~ Johnny Loftus, All Music Guide
