Stranded by Choice

Hometown: Billings
Members: Levi Luoma, Rich Feeley, Sean Young, Scott Waddington
Current Release: The Circle (2014)
Stranded By Choice has been through quite a few changes over the past decade: Rich Feeley (singer/bassist) founded the band, but then he took a hiatus in the mid ’00s for college. First they were a cover band, then they performed their own songs. They’ve changed direction several times, but now their goal is more focused than ever, and the state has taken note of their many, many live gigs. In 2012, Stranded By Choice was nominated for a Magic City Music Award, and they finally released their first full-length album, The Circle, earlier this year.
