Travis Stever Exclusive Interview with Travis Stever from Davenport

Travis Stever is a founding member of the band Coheed and Cambria, which is named after the title characters in lead singer-guitarist Claudio Sanchez's story which is central to most of the band's albums. Stever acts as a lead and rhythm guitarist in the band. He and Sanchez share leads and solos in the band's music and will often switch back and forth in the "dueling guitar" style made popular in the 1970s.

He uses a guitar talk box, as seen in Neverender Box Set.

He contributed to The Prize Fighter Inferno's My Brother's Blood Machine by playing lap steel on "Wayne Andrews, The Old Beekeeper".
