BIO—-


Since its inception, the Los Angeles-based quartet FOLIO has had a big vision: to create a pogo-inducing hybrid of modern Indie Rock energy and classic New Wave sounds. FOLIO’s recipe features a marriage of prominent, vintage synths with driving guitars, carried by a host of sweat-soaked dance grooves, bum-shaking bass lines, and indelible vocal hooks. Often channeling a hybrid of classic/modern Electro-Rock sonic textures in the vein of Duran Duran, She Wants Revenge, Shiny Toy Guns, New Order, and The Killers, FOLIO has created a sound uniquely their own.

FOLIO consists of Brent Meyer (lead vocals/guitars/keyboards), Chris Willshire (bass/keyboards), Danny Johnston (electronic & acoustic drums/vocals), and Willis Clow (guitars/vocals/keyboards).

    Hi!! Thanks for everyone's support. There is also a band in Japan called FOLIO, which shows up on our profile. The US FOLIO currently has 6 tracks available on Last.fm--Branded, Scene Machine, Friday Girl, Floating Away, Next to Mine, and My Elation. All the other songs are from the Japanese FOLIO. We're currently working on a new record and have just finished recording demos for 11 new songs! We're working on another 10 songs and will go into the studio early next year. Stay tuned, and enjoy what's left of 2008! Cheers---Brent, Chris, Danny, and Willis FOLIO (US)
