Nemes (pronounced; Knee-miss) is a unique 5 piece rock/folk band from Worcester, Massachusetts. Led by duel front-men Dave Anthony (Guitar/Vocals) and Josh Knowles (Violin/Vocals), the band brings what Worcester Magazine calls;  “A nuclear power plant's worth of energy to any venue they enter".  and energy isn't the only thing Nemes is focused on, the band's songwriting involves memorable lyrics and catchy hooks, that will always be at the forefront, followed by a wide array of top-notch musicianship.

Since being named one of Alternative Press' top 5 unsigned bands in 2010, Nemes has embarked on two tours of the Eastern US and released a full length album. The album is entitled “Don't Flush Me” and showcases the many sides that Nemes has to offer. On the disc, the band seamlessly transitions from arena-sized rock songs to violin-plucking tunes with just as much emotional intensity.  Nominated for a 2011 New England Music Award for "Best New Act" Nemes is motivated, capable, and ready to take on any audience put in front of them.
