Quarters of Change is an American rock band from New York City known for meshing gritty rock stylings with transcendent pop rock. After officially forming in 2017, Quarters of Change quickly established themselves as a dynamic American rock band, dedicated to writing and recording original songs that meshed gritty rock stylings with transcendent pop rock. The band, comprised of lead vocalist and guitarist Ben Roter, guitarist Jasper Harris, guitarist Ben Acker, and drummer Attila Anrather, swiftly released their first extended plays, ‘Hey’ in 2020, followed by ‘New Hour’ in 2021. Their early independent work paved the way for a significant partnership, leading to their signing with 300 Entertainment and Elektra Records, both prominent divisions of Warner Music Group.
Their touring credits include sharing stages with the Jonas Brothers, Bad Suns including a significant North American tour Two Door Cinema Club, The Band Camino, and Joywave, expanding their reach to wider audiences. This momentum culminated in the release of their highly anticipated second studio album, ‘Portraits’, in 2024. Quarters of Change continues to evolve their distinct musical style, which blends alternative rock, indie rock, and pop rock, while incorporating elements of nineties-style alternative hooks, space rock soundscapes, and seventies grooves. Citing influences from artists such as The Strokes, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and MGMT, the band’s cohesive discography, robust touring schedule, and ability to perform alongside industry heavyweights underscore their marketability and position them as a compelling act in the contemporary rock landscape.
