Stockholm Syndrome is made up of an all-star cast of musicians.  When Widespread Panic bass player Dave Schools and acclaimed  singer/songwriter Jerry Joseph of the Jackmormons decided to collaborate, each initially thought the side project would be a cool, if temporary, change of pace. With One studio album  released, a new studio album set for release in early 2010 and  multiple tours behind them, Stockholm Syndrome has transcended being just a side project.  Stockholm Syndrome is a band.
The band's unusual choice for a name, Stockholm Syndrome, refers to the psychological phenomenon in which a hostage bonds with his kidnappers. It seemed an apt moniker for the pair's somewhat  convoluted relationship. Now all Schools and Joseph needed was a band. They put together their "Dream Team" Eric McFadden (a San  Francisco-based guitarist who has worked with Keb Mo', Les Claypool and George Clinton's P-Funk All Stars), Danny Louis (an  
Upstate NY based Keyboard virtuoso widely known for his role in Gov't Mule) and drummer Wally Ingram (an L.A.-based drummer who has worked with Jackson Browne, Sheryl Crow, Tracy Chapman and  David Lindley). All three musicians were on board and are now back for more live dates, an in-store recording for release and a pending studio album.
