Meadow Desperado is a post-punk band from Orlando, Florida featuring Colin Costa on guitars and vocals, Connor Clifford on bass, Marshall McCloud on drums, and Gabbie Duarte on guitars. Pioneers in nu-new wave (patent pending) and self proclaimed “sleeper-build funk”, Meadow Desperado plays a style of music inspired by 80’s - 90’s alternative, ranging from bands such as The Smiths, Jeff Buckley, Minor Threat, and Joy Division; adding their own unique twist on these ideas with complex guitar structure and a great emphasis on writing pop songs.
