The Berlin Project was an American rock band from just outside Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with influences from the punk, and ska (early years) music scenes that was active from 1995–2005. The band took its name from a computer program.
In those ten years the band managed to tour North America many times over with popular acts like The Matches, Steel Train, Punchline, The Sloppy Meateaters, The Unsung Zeros, The Juliana Theory, Midtown, River City High, Catch 22 and Clearview Kills. The band also was a featured act on numerous of the side stages during the 2002 and 2003 Van's Warped Tour, being featured on the Ernie Ball, Kevin Says, and Punkrocks.net stages in numerous cities throughout the East Coast and Midwest United States. The Berlin Project was also a part of numerous Radio Festivals and the like such as 2000's X-Fest in Pittsburgh with The Stone Temple Pilots and Everclear, and 2002's Skate and Surf Festival in Asbury Park, New Jersey with The Descendents, Finch and more.
In 2004 The Berlin Project finished a two back to back North American tours as co headliners with Art Punkers, The Matches and then as main support for fellow American Rock act Steel Train in time to return home to Pittsburgh for 2004's X-Fest held at the Post-Gazette Pavilion where they shared the stage with The Offspring, Switchfoot and longtime companions both at home and on tour Punchline. Somewhere in here as well The Berlin Project found time to headline the farewell show to the band's home venue in Pittsburgh, Club Laga. This performance was joined by main support acts River City High and Clearview Kills, complete with ceiling mounted cannons shooting ticker tape over the crowd as the band performed the final song to be played at the venue. This stretch of touring and performances in 2004 would be the band's final major activity.
