New Neighbors

EPK

Bio.

New Neighbors are childhood friends who taught each other to play. Sometimes they think in lists. Imaginary radio shows in second grade, high cliffs and deep water, the local dance scene, the dark ages. These things shaped them.

Saturday nights, they say, are for thinking, drinking, dancing, and collecting things to talk about on Sunday. New Neighbors make music for Saturday nights.

They make music for Monday nights too.

People Say...

"Muscular vocals, rubbery baselines, sparse but precise drums and sharp guitar jangles... this is a set worth arriving early for."

"New Neighbors are irresistably danceable and deliciously experimental."
- The Understudy

"Essentially, it's everything that's mysterious and wonderful about pop music."
- The Ithaca Journal

"Smartrock"
- The Washington Square News
