Author Band

Indie rock out of Minneapolis. RIYL Copeland, From Indian Lakes, Now Now, Valise. Never really see love for this criminally overlooked band. Of Brighter Days was my AOTY last year, and you can currently name your own price for it on Bandcamp. Looks like the gears are beginning to turn for the next album cycle, too. Let's talk about them!

edit: album thread for IIFOIIC can be found here

 

I like this! That song sounds like it could be a Mutemath song! Not complaining though.

 

@Richard yeah! I've not really ever considered that, but the two bands share quite a few characteristics for sure.

 

That's a great RIYL. I will definitely check this out.

 

these guys are so great.
another RIYL: Polyenso

 

Something is happening!

 

so ready for more.

side note, I saw these guys going hard during Norma Jean's show a few weeks back.

 

Holy shit this is so good

@sophos34 yo

 

Link doesn't work omg fix it

 

Fixed it, sorry I'm dumb and having a hard time embedding music videos on mobile, I forget the formatting haha. I'll just leave the badcamp link there until I figure it out

Edit: here we go

 

Band has been quiet as hell. Just bugged them on IG about an update and they let me know a full length will be coming really soon

 

nice

 

Wahooooo

 

Nice

 

Oh shit, record drops January 1st

Three songs up for stream on bandcamp along with a preorder option

 

Fuck, these songs are stunning. I am going to be obsessed with this record

 

i made an album thread ya dork!!!

 

This band is awesome. Digging all their stuff.

 

Nice! The new one admittedly hasn’t stuck with me as much I anticipated, but I’m gonna throw it back into rotation once fall comes around and see if it clicks. The prerelease tracks were just not very representative of what the record ended up being lol

 

Upcoming tour setlist per their IG story:

Want
Extraordinary
Sonder
Forget
IIFOIIC
Soft White
Smoke
Wander

 

To anyone who lives in MPLS, we’re playing a show with them next month and y’all should come

 

Bummer. I believe this leaves only Trevor and Cameron as official members

 

bummer, dude kills it on guitar.
i’m pretty sure the Bartlett’s do that majority of the writing, but this is still a bit of a bummer.

 

Of Brighter Days turned 5 yesterday! Still adore this record.
