Sleeping People is an instrumental rock band from San Diego, California. The group is currently signed to Temporary Residence Limited. The group formed in early 2002 and began playing shows by the end of that year as a trio with Joileah Maddock and Kasey Boekholt each playing guitar, and Brandon Relf on drums. In August of 2003 they became a 4-piece with the addition of Kenseth Thibideau (Pinback, Rumah Sakit, Tarentel) on bass guitar. Scrapping most of the old material, they honed their sound to become a more robust version of the previous line-up. At the end of 2004 Joileah left the group and her close friend Amber Coffman took over as the new guitar player. The style of instrumental rock they play is sometimes referred to as math rock, which is characterized by complex, atypical rhythmic structures, stop/start dynamics and angular, dissonant riffs.
