Far back in the mists of time, so long that none remember exactly when, four young musicians each joined different cover bands. After decades of playing other peoples music (and dreaming of writing their own), the first two began to write together. Then the third joined and the writing continued to grow. Once the three had written enough they still needed the fourth to make it a unit. When he joined the magic became complete. Stand Up Audio was born!

Joe Pero: Guitar/Vocals
An original New Hampshire native that has played in many musical projects from coast to coast. An avid guitar amplifier nerd Joe uses them to build very cool sonic landscapes in the current band Stand Up Audio. When not running and recording his own musical side projects you find Joe sitting in with other local and national acts when they are in the area.

Joe Cadrette: Drums/Vocals
Joe always knew music would be his life. His journey in many projects over the years from cover and original bands one thing has been constant, writing and recording original music. With Stand Up Audio, he has found other like minded musicians that have the same passion.

Ben Cooper: Vocals/Harp
Born in Portsmouth NH, Ben has been singing most of his life, from Rock & Roll cover bands to other styles of music and situations. He has been writing original material since sometime in the early 2000s. His rock vocal influences include Robert Plant, Jim Morrison, Chris Cornell, Paul Rogers, Paul McCartney, Roger Daltry and Bon Scott to name just a few, but he has a sound all his own.

Heath Auger (Babe): Bass/Vocals
“I remember the day at age 14, when I walked into Belisle music on Elm Street in Manchester and picked up a sunburst Memphis bass guitar (Fender P-bass copy) and started playing “Red Barchetta (RUSH)” by ear. From that day on, I knew I wanted to be a bass player. Since then he has been in many cover bands and can also play drums, guitar, and piano.

Approached by Joe Pero about “helping out” with an original project that he and two others were working on. He said “sure, why not”, and later joined as a permanent member of Stand Up Audio.
