The Stone Temple Posers are a STP Tribute band based out of Plaistow, New Hampshire, and this is our official website. Please visit our Facebook page and "like/follow" us and/or join our email list for monthly emails with updates and exclusive content. We play 100% pure STP!

For smaller and more intimate venues, we can perform a whole unplugged acoustic set of STP. So if you are a venue in New England, contact us; if you are a fan, come see us. If you are a venue looking for a demo video, please go to our EPK page; audio is on our Audio page. We are also on ArtistBomb.com. Our guitars/basses are expertly serviced by Chris from Black Cat Guitar (blackcatguitar.com).
