Interview with the band. Enjoy:
How would you describe your sound? I would describe our sound as indie rock (specifically garage rock / post-punk). We have some strong jazz influences in our music as well, but stylistically it definitely falls under the "rock" umbrella.
You mentioned that you won the John Lennon Songwriting Contest. What's your process to songwriting? Riff or chord change, and we build out the arrangement from there. We record our rehearsals and make notes about how we can improve the songs. After a few iterations, we either have something we're happy with or we ditch the idea if it's not working. I'll write lyrics and then we start recording the studio version in our rehearsal space. The writing process often bleeds into the recording process as we add layers of different instrumentation.
Own final thoughts: We started this band in the Boston/Providence area while we were still in school and now we're based here in Los Angeles.
