Studemont is an American band formed in Heights Houston, TX in 2003. For most of its career, the band has consisted of Gilbert Galvan, Christian Saldivar, and Dan McKinney. Studemont's musical style has been considered experimental and avant-garde. They are best known for their energetic live performance, postmodern musical arrangements, and inspiration taken from Houston, TX in their subject matter. Studemont has been known to fuse several elements in creating music including electronic, hip-hop, down-tempo, and blues. The recent additions of Adam Martinez and David Molina have given the band a tight chemistry and a fresh perspective on creativity.
