"Stay Up Late is jubilant, providing an electronic jolt into modern Americana, while waltzing along the edges of dream-pop, synth-pop, and Brooklyn's mid-aughts guitar-rock revival. It's one uplifting mother, packed with creative fits and bursts." - Vanyaland
Brothers Zach and Nathan Hamer, along with Miranda Zickler and Jillian Walker, came together in 2014 to form a unique breed of string band; one proudly defiant of preconceived notions of what fits under the label 'Americana'. Their 2014 debut
The Wild North, which propelled the band out of the woods and on to stages across the country, was followed in 2016 by their breakout full length The Heartland. Both albums were recorded at the famed Bear Creek Studio in Woodinville, WA (Fleet Foxes, Metric), and led to featured performances at dozens of festivals and several successful national headlining tours.
Home from touring The Heartland, the band spread to take a breath. All four found themselves in the midst of major life changes both as people and as artists; broadening the total palette from which they draw as musicians. The songs on Stay Up Late ring with the vibrancy of exploration and discovery. "Each track on Stay Up Late was written separately," explains Zickler, "but around the same time, so the undercurrents of the songs have the same sort of pulse and connecting fibers. At our first rehearsal they all came together in very natural and unexpected ways."
