Maps & Atlases with Brenda
Maps & Atlases formed when the founding members met in art school at Columbia College Chicago in the South Loop of Chicago. Shiraz Dada (bass), Chris Hainey (drums), Dave Davison (guitar/vocals), and Erin Elders (guitar) got together to try to find a sound that is both technical and organic, in the same vein as their influences Don Caballero and Hella. Their latest tracks reveal an interest in virtuosity channeled through the West African guitar stylings the kids are digging these days. In 2009, the band was listed as the best new band in Illinois as part of The Boston Phoenix's 50 Bands, 50 States supplement. Local favorites, Brenda, play some of the tightest pop around, the three-piece shimmying between Beach Boys inspired anthems and angular rhythmic acrobatics creating an energetic tension with frontman Joshua Loring's sonorous vocals.
