| The Silent Comedy at The Hi Hat |
What's the story behind how your band started? The Silent Comedy started as a casual side project of a very different band, called Dehra Dun. We began playing these rowdy folk shows that took on a life of their own, and the side project ended up eclipsing the band that spawned it.
I read (via Sideways Media) that you grew up traveling around the world. How do you believe that has impacted your music? My brother, Jeremiah, and I traveled the world with our family, spending the majority of that time in Southeast Asia. Going from Orange County, CA to the streets of Kolkata had a profound effect on us. The things we experienced changed our worldview permanently, and we eventually returned to the United States feeling very removed from the culture we were raised in. To some extent, that feeling has continued to the present day.
