ABOUT

Pawnshop Stella offers diverse, introspective, relatable indy rock crafted by three talented musicians with a passion for melodic harmonies and soulful interpretation. Together they have arranged a repertoire of original tracks with striking lyrics draped over a hypnotic symphony of sound.
Lead singer/guitarist Joe Olive’s expressive vocals command attention to every line, while Todd Jensen’s drumming, multi-instrumentation and vocals anchor the band. Classically trained guitarist turned bass player Sean Carr ties it together with moving bass lines that complement the technical and emotional elements that make Pawnshop Stella powerful and distinctive.
