Been Stellar is what you get when you leave the youth alone in a metropolis; they grow up, they make noise

Crackly, bright and distorted - stories of violence, love, and a new, un-glamorous, New York City. 12" EP pressed on red transparent vinyl. Hailing from the suburbs of Detroit, the beaches of Los Angeles, and Brazil by way of Sydney, Nando Dale (guitar), Laila Wayans (drums), Sam Slocum (vocals), Nico Brunstein (bass) and Skyler St. Marks (guitar) have positioned themselves at the glimmering rotten center of tonight's rock and roll. Each member so distinctly themselves, it must be assumed that such a diverse and unlikely gang were drawn tight together in their frst year of university by nothing short of serendipitous fortune and a shared, waggish sense of humor.

They are a band of friends - sharing, crying, fghting, and kissing - wreaking havoc together and laughing like how only the jaunty youth can afford to. Been Stellar's arrangements come textured, swooping - pushing past you at a downtown pace and off to fnd a better night. The songs are of their own time and space, offering a New York City - Been Stellar's New York City - the sounds of growing up young.
