Biography

There was a thanksgiving. there were songs written and heard in time and in space and in dust and above. They turned to guitars, both electrical and acousitical, pedals,pedals and more, there was a voice, noise, and still, spotted feedback turtles. somewhere in between they found the rhythm ace.

“They have a knack for taking an acoustic route, but go for the jugular by doing so with electric guitar and vocals that’ll catch you off guard. There’s organized chaos here. Noise is layered with melody and rhythm…the sound goes where it wants, and Followed By Static is having fun at the helm.”

— Laurie Gallardo, KUT 90.5

“The band’s comprehensive sound, comprised of noise, cave-dwelling vocals and angular guitars is a live treat, and with tunes like “Bloody Arrows” offering more restrained moments, it’s definitely a set you shouldn’t miss. Taking prefab Casio beats and layering them with reverb-drenched vocals, spare guitars and fuzz, Followed by Static succeed at not-rock surprisingly well. They’re working on the art of sneaking in melody where it struggles to take root, and abandoning a tune for grit just as the ear begins to settle. There’s nothing but everything familiar about this group, and we’re anxious to see how their sound develops. “
— Paige Maguire, The Austinist

“Their dark and throat-swallowed vocals provide a nice juxtaposition to the play-time percussion and spare, wandering guitar, and, with austere lyrics like “I don’t care to / see the light,” it’ll be interesting to watch how it comes together live.”
— Nick Courtright, The Austinist
