Little Fevers:
Little Fevers is a sweet and crunchy amalgamation of pop rock that has formed, much like a pearl, over many years around a tiny grain of sand. Little Fevers emerged in 2013, floating up out of the ocean to walk around on land. Comprised of two guys and two girls who, having operated as longtime collaborators, have honed their craft traveling the country together for several years. The group is a project curated by the eyes and ears of those that sit on the same little raft, letting the sun wash over them as they paddle and splash to their next port of call. The first whispers of an album were passed back and forth, cross-country, as the parts came together to form something distinctly whole. Much of the album was laid down at Vacation Island in Brooklyn with the remaining bits assembled at Old Blackberry Way in Minneapolis. Invoking the playfulness of bands like Pavement and the Violent Femmes, and vocal textures of idols such as Peter Gabriel and The Microphones to form something all their own, Little Fevers is delighted to funnel all of the color and excitement into your ear holes.
The Awful Truth:
The Awful Truth is the moniker of Minneapolis based songwriter Brent Colbert- exploring duality and layered meanings through music and intuition.
2015 release "Lakewater" is a cassette of 7 surreal pop songs honing in on a new sound, spanning from melodic to experimental. Performed with Laurie Geving, Stephen Sokolouski, and Chris Madden, 'Lakewater' is full of cathartic tones and strings, creating brooding pop melodies no doubt inspired by the dramatic seasons in the Midwest.
2012 release 'Birthright' speaks the stories and moodscapes of years spent in Utah. It mimics the state's landscapes and long sunsets, all through a steady narrative. Upon release Colbert set out on a nationwide tour, performing 54 North American shows (including a stop by the Daytrotter Studios) in the fall of 2012.
The Awful Truth has been direct support for Owen Pallet, Angel Olsen, the The Dodos.
"Band frontman Brent Colbert manages to empathetically craft hypnotizing songs within the conventions of folk without having to rewrite any rules." -SLUG Mag
