Far · Tune In
Far is an American rock band from Sacramento, California, formed in 1991 by vocalist/guitarist Jonah Matranga, guitarist Shaun Lopez, bassist John Gutenberger, and drummer Chris Robyn. After early local releases, they signed to Epic/Immortal and released Tin Cans with Strings to You (1996) and their most acclaimed album, Water & Solutions (1998), which produced the cult single "Mother Mary." Emerging from the same Sacramento scene as the Deftones, Far toured with Deftones and Incubus and is often cited as an early touchstone of post-hardcore and emo. The band split in 1999, reunited in 2008, and released a final album, At Night We Live, via Vagrant Records in 2010.
