FIVE THINGS - WALLOWS
Cole Preston ( Drums ) - Braeden Lemasters ( Vocals & Guitar) - Dylan Minnette (Vocals & Guitar)
Best friends since the age of 11, the members of Wallows have spent most of their lives obsessing over music together, steadily gathering a musical vocabulary that’s expansive and erratic and wildly eclectic. The L.A.-based trio puts that vocabulary to work and draws from infinite inspirations: scores to Spike Jonze movies, the Beatles’ most rhapsodic digressions, bedroom pop and lo-fi hip-hop and ’70s post-punk.
