With influences ranging from brit rock, to soul to blue note area jazz, their music offers a unique blend of laid back rhythms and guitar driven arrangements - reminiscent of 70's hard rock. Spacey melodic layers float through one another as moments of chaos culminate into calming resolve. Their first self titled EP was released in 2015 and they've been playing venues in Oakland and San Francisco since 2014. Venues include: Bottom of the Hill, Brick and Mortar, The Milk Bar, El Rio, The Knockout, 50 Mason Social House, Hotel Utah, Neck of the Woods, The Legionnaire, The Stork Club, and Vamp Records. Breatherrr Michael Anthony Espinach: voice, guitars, bass, synths, drums and percussion, noise, loops -from Long Beach, CA -BREATHERRR is the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist producer Michael Anthony Espinach. Founded in early 2014, BREATHERRR fuses psychedelic noise with new wave jazz and pop for a unique musical experiment. After only a couple of years, BREATHERRR has garnered critical acclaim and success in his hometown of Long Beach. He is also now co-owner of 369 UNDERGROUND, a music studio in the heart of Chinatown, Los Angeles. His most ambitious project to date is the LP entitled “Almond Noir”. The album touches upon finding strength in vulnerability and tells the story of Espinach’s own battle with substance abuse. “This album points to the cultivation and letting go of certain relationships. Building and destroying romantic relationships, cultivating and abstaining from my chemical relationships, and hiding from and truly discovering the relationship with my self.” “Almond Noir” begins with the leading single Chantrieri which fuses electronic beats with heavy bass and new-wave vocals. Chantrieri is experimental yet with a pop sensibility rarely found in music today. In the second track Tar, BREATHERRR brilliantly fuses industrial beats and dark wave influenced lyricism for what can be described as a beautiful yet poignantly haunting musical psychedelic trip. Fresh off of playing numerous shows at SXSW, BREATHERRR continues to play packed venues across Southern California opening for such artists as SUB POP's Avi Buffalo and Anticon's Pictureplane. Forest Of Tongue Joel Jasper - Vocals, Guitar, Keys // Zach Mabry - Drums, Vocals // J.P. Bendzinski - Bass, Vocals, Keys // -from Long Beach, CA -Like the witch from Hansel and Gretel, Joel Jasper and Zach Mabry of Forest of Tongue seem enamored with filling human orifices with cookie dough, gumdrops, Elmer’s glue, juice, figs, cotton candy, sour Skittles, McVities Digestive Crackers, sugar-coated m-80s, and pretty much anything else that causes devastating, crystalline trauma at a molecular level. All of this shocking and sugary violence is scaled up proportionately by Jasper and Mabry’s instrumentation, which on “Dark Chocolate,” sounds a lot like Deerhoof and the Muppets band ate marzipan intestines soaked in PCP, and an hour later reduced themselves to a pile of blood, splinters of resonant wood, and polyester fur. In reality, Forest of Tongue (either a great innuendo or the nightmare where my little brother sleepwalks across the carpet whispering about a meadow of tongues licking his feet as the trees leer behind him) hooked up with J.P. Bendzinski –who’s worked with Crystal Antlers– to add some protein to their tooth-rotting, math-pop0 sound. Their second LP is going to be titled Fancy Itch, and its been picked up by Porch Party Records #no-choruses - Ross Devlin (Tiny Mixtapes) |
