Research on band

• Dinner and Suit are an American rock band based in Tennessee and was formed in 2008.
• The band was formed when cousins Jonathan Capeci and Joey Beretta began writing music together.
• Along with recruiting their long time friend Anthony Genca to play bass, the cousins built a band playing with various drummers in their first year.
• They have played alongside other bands such as Imagine Dragons and Lawson.
• The band's name is a tribute to Joey and Jonathan's great-grandmother. As Jonathan tells it:
  “Joey and I are cousins and our great-grandmother was a seamstress who made and repaired clothes during the early part of the 20th century. When the factory that employed her would discard suits, she would take them home and spend her free time mending them. It was the Great Depression and times were tough for everyone. Wanting to make a difference in her own way, she made it a common practice to invite people who were down on their luck over to the house, cook for them and just spend time with them. When they left, she would give them one of the suits she was finished working on. Our family would tell us that they left her home with ‘dinner and a suit’ – and hence the name.”
