    Formed in Issaquah, WA in 1993, Modest Mouse has become one of the most well-known and widely successful underground bands to emerge in the past decade. The band’s impressive career began with smaller, independent labels that were perfect outlets for their alternative and gritty punk-influenced sound they showcased on earlier albums. Signing onto Epic Records in 2000, the band has since released three of their most highly praised albums, including 2007’s We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank, which hit #1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, gaining more fans and critical acclaim than ever before.

    With most members still in high school, Avi Buffalo are the youngest signees to legendary Sub-Pop Records. What originally began as the solo project of singer/guitarist Avi Zahner-Insenberg, eventually became a quartet, with band members meeting at Milikan High School in Long Beach, California. One of the most buzzed about bands of the year, NPR describes the band as having drawn inspiration from “experimental folk, jazz and Beach Boys-esque harmonies” and having a “reverb-intensive summer sound, with intricate song structures and a timeless feel.” Avi Buffalo’s self-titled debut was offically releasted this past spring.
