Tuesday was a punk and emo group established by three ex-members of Chicago’s ska punk outfit Slapstick following its dissolution in 1996. The original members included Dan Andriano on bass and vocals, Matt Stamps handling guitar duties, and Rob Kellenberger on drums and vocals. In 1996, they issued a demo through 1133, followed by the Early Summer EP released via Asian Man Records in 1997. That same year, they unveiled their only full-length album, Freewheelin. While recording in California, Tuesday also acted as the backing musicians for Mike Park on The Chinkees’ first album, The Chinkees Are Coming. During this period, Rob and Matt balanced college commitments, whereas Dan broadened his musical pursuits by performing with Dulcet Tone before eventually joining Alkaline Trio after their bassist left.
At the start of 1998, Tyler Wiseman from Dulcet Tone joined Tuesday as an additional guitarist to enrich their sound and assist with touring in support of Freewheelin. The band embarked on a U.S. tour throughout spring and summer of that year while simultaneously working on new material for a prospective second album. Nevertheless, due to members prioritizing family responsibilities, academics, and Dan’s expanding role with Alkaline Trio, Tuesday ceased activity by 1999.
Following Tuesday’s disbandment, Kellenberger went on to drum for Duvall, Colossal, and briefly rejoined the reunited Smoking Popes. Meanwhile, Wiseman became part of The Honor System and Whale|Horse.
