Cruiserweight

Cruiserweight was a spirited indie rock/power pop band from Austin, Texas, known for their infectious energy and hook-driven tunes. Formed in the late '90s, the group centered around siblings Stella Maxwell (vocals) and Urny Maxwell (drums), who brought a mix of playful lyrics and punchy melodies to their music. Their sound blended punk urgency with pop sensibility, earning them a loyal following during the early 2000s DIY scene. Releases like *Sweet Weaponry* and *Big Bold Letters* showcased their knack for crafting relatable anthems about life’s ups and downs, while tracks like "The Smith Tower" and "This Will Undoubtedly Come Out Wrong" highlighted their witty lyricism. Though they slowed down after the late 2000s, their catalog remains a nostalgic gem for fans of upbeat, heartfelt indie rock.
