Via Sahara

"Via Sahara has been a staple of the Youngstown Music Scene for years, so maybe that's why when I think "Youngstown Rock," they're the first band that comes to mind. To us in the Valley, it's pop rock. But with the Youngstown grittiness and attitude that makes everyone else hear them as straight rock. Whatever you classify them, it's dirty, passionate rock with a great show."

Genres: Alt / Indie rock, Pop, Rock

Formed: 1999 in Youngstown, OH
