Local Natives
Face-to-face songwriting and musical interplay put to tape: the classic studio setting is juxtaposed on LocalNatives’ fourth full-length, Violet Street [Loma VistaRecordings] with modern production and visuals to forma timeless album. The band’s signature soaring 3-partharmonies are augmented by loops of tape, physically spliced and transformed by hand, the result of experimenting in the studio with producer Shawn Everett [Alabama Shakes, Kacey Musgraves, The War On Drugs] is a band renewed.In essence, Local Natives [Taylor Rice (vocals, guitar), Kelcey Ayer (vocals, keys), Ryan Hahn (vocals, guitar), Matt Frazier (drums), and Nik Ewing (vocals, bass,keys)] return to the methods of their 2009 debut Gorilla Manor, but with the bonds of their union fortified and with the growth of wisdom accrued in the studio and on stage in front of millions of worldwide fans.
