  • Hey Mercedes was a rock band from Wisconsin, USA, that formed in 1999/2000 after the dissolution of Braid. The band consisted of Bob Nanna on guitar and vocals, Todd Bell on bass and vocals, Mark Dawursk on guitar and vocals and Damon Atkinson on drums. Hey Mercedes' first release was a Self Titled EP on Polyvinyl Records. Soon after its release, they signed to Vagrant Records and started touring for support of their upcoming Vagrant full length. In 2001 alone, they performed 114 shows. After the release of the band's first full length at the end of 2001, Dawursk left the band and was replaced with Mike Shumaker. Hey Mercedes proved a more melodic antidote to Bob Nanna's previous band, Braid. With such hits as Stay Six, Our Weekend Starts on Wednesday, Let's Go Blue and Eleven to Your Seven, the band quickly gained popularity in an audience that had never been exposed to the scene. With 2 full lengths, 3 EP's and 358 shows under their belt, Hey Mercedes called it quits. Their final show (#359) was at the Metro in Chicago on April 23rd of 2005. In a 2007 e-mail campaign, Threadless Tees reported that Hey Mercedes would play at the Metro, to celebrate the grand opening of the company's Chicago store In early 2009 lead singer Bob confirmed via Twitter that a new band with drummer Damon is in the works. The band will be somewhat the same style as Hey Mercedes. Hey Mercedes will play a random show on Saturday September 19th, 2009 at the Double Door in Chicago. And yes, it is 21 and over.
  • Hey Mercedes byla americká rocková kapela zfromovaná v letech 1999/2000. Krátce po odchodu kytaristy Chrise Broache z Braid a jejím následném rozpadu si zbylí členové původní sestavy - kytarista a zpěvák Bob Nanna, bubeník Damon Atkinson a basák Todd Bell - našli náhradu v podobě Marka Dawurska z Alligator Gun. Již v následujícím roce vydali první singl.
