Pinegrove is an American rock band formed in Montclair, New Jersey in 2010 . The band's lineup is variable, with singer-songwriter Evan Stephens Hall and drummer Zack Levine representing its "core" members. The two met as children and played in various bands before founding Pinegrove. The band's musical style, which uses instruments such as the banjo and pedal steel guitar, is commonly described as a mix between alternative country and emo. Pinegrove spent its early years self-releasing its music—including their debut album, Meridian , in 2012—and performing do-it-yourself (DIY) house shows.
After signing to independent record label Run for Cover, the group issued an anthology of their early work, titled Everything So Far (2014). Their second LP, Cardinal (2016), represented a breakthrough, amassing a devoted fan listenership and appearing on many music critics' top-ten-year-end lists. After recording their third full-length, Skylight, the band took a year-long hiatus after Hall was accused of "sexual coercion" by a person with whom he had a relationship. Skylight saw proper release in 2018, and was followed by several sold-out tours. The band signed to British label Rough Trade for their fourth effort, Marigold, released in 2020.
Pinegrove are known for their literary lyricism and loyal following of fans, which refer to themselves as "Pinenuts". The band's name comes from a prominent pine tree row on a nature reserve where Hall attended college. The group is known for their geometric iconography, specifically using square shapes, and usage of the ampersand (&) in artwork and merchandise. Pinegrove are also known for their alignment with progressive causes, including charitable contributions to civil rights organizations.
