Originally formed in Philadelphia, Inouk consists of brothers Damon and Alexander McMahon who share the vocal duties as well as play guitars alongside their lead player, Ian Fenger. The rhythm section, in turn, enlists the talents of Jesse Johnson on bass and Glen Brasile on drums. The resulting efforts have induced massive head scratching and a mad rush to find the appropriate musical comparison, so far none of which have succeeded in describing the music Inouk creates. What can be said is that Inouk plays marvelously complex, ever climaxing pop songs that consistently take the listener to unexpected resolutions. Their music is filled with harmonies, dueling vocals, slashing guitar lines and even the occasional whistling solo. This ambitious concoction results in a live show that has chops, excitement and is a veritable rollercoaster where chaos and risk conspire to produce chills.
While it's nearly impossible to decode the Rosetta stone for Inouk's music, perhaps it can be safely said that their music is made by fans of the close harmonies of the Everly Brothers, the jangle pop of the Byrds, the twisted melodicism of Brian Eno, or the effervescence of Ian Brown.
