Quoting Napoleon is a 6-piece rock band from Portland, Oregon. The band combines many musical styles on their debut album "Rise & Fall". The focus is always on the songs and arrangements as a vehicle for singer John Salazar's rich baritone, the intricate interplay between the guitars and the solid groove laid down by the drums and bass. Regardless of the stellar musicianship, it's the songs that stay with you through thoughtful, literate lyrics and hooks that leave you humming them for days. The group translates all this live through a dynamic and passionate presentation of their music with Salazar leading the way.

Great songwriting. Passionate performances. Music that defies labels.

John Salazar (vocals), Sam Kovic (guitar), Matt Edmonds (acoustic guitar), Matt Torres (keyboards), Guy Wettstein (bass) and Steve Turmell (drums).
