More Than Me brings a very special hometown show to Buffalo Iron Works on Saturday, May 30th with special guests Dirty Smile and Kevin Sampson & The Nightshift! More Than Me: MTM (More Than Me) built their reputation the hard way — on the road and on stage — earning acclaim through relentless touring and standout performances alongside some of the most respected names in modern music. A career highlight came with an appearance at London Calling Festival in Hyde Park, where the band opened for Sir Paul McCartney in front of an estimated crowd of over 50,000. True to form, the band followed that momentum with national touring, including performances at major festivals such as Summerfest in Milwaukee, the largest music festival in the United States. Praise for MTM has come from both peers and press. Robin Wilson of the Gin Blossoms described the band as “some of the coolest, smartest rock & rollers I’ve ever met,” while Teen People magazine noted that More Than Me “may be young but are not short on talent.” Their single “Unconditional Truth”, from their self-titled release, won the Rock category in the international SongOfTheYear songwriting competition (benefiting the VH1 Save the Music Foundation) and was featured on the Emerging Artist Compilation at Summerfest, with over 10,000 copies distributed. The band was also voted Best Original Rock Band by the WNY People’s Choice Awards. Musically, MTM blends soul, pop, and rock into an energetic and emotionally driven sound that translates seamlessly across venues — from intimate acoustic rooms to packed clubs, college campuses, and large-scale festivals. With more than 500 live shows and 100,000 miles of national touring behind them, MTM earned a reputation as seasoned road warriors capable of delivering powerful, memorable live performances. Their universality and stage presence led to shared bills with artists including Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, Pearl Jam, Ben Harper & Relentless7, Jamiroquai, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Elvis Costello, The Black Eyed Peas, De La Soul, Gin Blossoms, The Gaslight Anthem, and many more. Now, after years away from the stage together, MTM will reunite for a special performance on May 30th, 2026, bringing the band back together to celebrate their legacy and reconnect with longtime fans — and introduce their music to a new generation. More Than Me is a four-piece band from Buffalo, NY, featuring brothers Ryan Jacob Doyle (lead vocals / rhythm guitar) and Todd Doyle (drums / vocals), alongside Joey Nicastro (lead guitar / vocals) and Justin Rizzo (bass / vocals). Dirty Smile: Winners of the 2014 Northeastern Region’s Hard RocK Competition and 2016’s Artvoice Best Original Act, Dirty Smile left a big impression on every stage that they performed on until they went their separate ways. Reuniting for this one-night-only event, they can’t wait to bring back their scorching set of blended rock, pop, blues and soul.
