Sweet Desire performs at the Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts

Sweet Desire performs at the Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts

Hailing from the once bustling railroad town of Altoona, Pennsylvania, Sweet Desire is far from the most average of rock and roll groups today. Formed in 2021, and drawing inspiration from the sights, sounds, and experiences of 60s and 70s psychedelia, counterculture, and musical revolution, Sweet Desire is committed to writing and performing original music reminiscent of a bygone era of popular culture. As of June 7th, 2024, the band has released four singles. Their latest, “Queen of the Dawn,” is an anthemic tune that takes a more melodic and laid-back approach. Although it is a stark contrast to their previous work, the band believes there is something within for everyone to enjoy. Sweet Desire has had the pleasure of playing alongside the likes of the Steve Miller Band, Quiet Riot, Sponge, among others. Sweet Desire and many bands like them are at the forefront of a 21st-century musical revolution, and they don’t plan on slowing down.
