Thanks to all of you who have been listening. Please leave some comments.
We went to high school together. We played in different bands. We went to different colleges. We dropped out of different colleges. We then started making music. We, however, lived in different cities, states, and countries. We relocated to the same city, state and country. Here we are.
Yes. Anywhere 5-6 hours away that will have us. Yeah. Isn't it always a special moment?
I jokingly like to call us post elevator, or avant easy-listening, but it's a mixture of styles ranging from Pop to Classical; Post Rock to Country/Blue Grass. Here's a recent review of our song 'Ficus':
"St. Joseph, MO's mainly instrumental Sylvan Lane sound a little like American Football and a lot like Owen (Mike Kinsella's current project). In "Ficus," Brandon Bone and David Hawk sing something about fissures and wakes and pressure, and it's all vague and pretty and it really works, breaking up the twinkly monotony. It's almost overwhelmingly tasteful, but, like Kinsella's projects and a lot of the Jim O'Rourke-influenced post-rock stuff coming out of Chicago in the past decade or so, it's tempered with this genuine melancholy that keeps it from sounding like the score to some Pilates workout video." - Kellen Perry, TWPOT.com, Oct.
