Through the release of three LPs and endless touring, the Austin, Texas band Quiet Company has been making a name for themselves
nationally with their energetic live shows and their anthemic, dynamic,
indie rock which critics have called a mix of The Beatles, Death Cab
for Cutie, Arcade Fire and Weezer. They’ve gained a huge fanbase while
gathering praise from The New York Times, TIME, NPR, Last Call with
Carson Daly, Paste Magazine, Houston Chronicle, Austin Chronicle and
more.
Quiet Company won Rock Band of the Year during SXSW 2014, adding to their
previous 10 Austin Music Awards including Band of the Year, Album of
the Year, Rock Band of the Year, Indie Band of the Year and Song of the
Year, all won on the strength of their 2011 release We Are All Where We
Belong.
After the success of their 2013 album re-release, A
Dead Man on My Back: Shine Honesty Revisited, Quiet Company was featured
on NPR’s “All Things Considered” and chosen to be a Red Bull Sound
Select Artist, all of which rekindled interest in We Are All Where We
Belong and shot the album to #7 on the iTunes Rock charts nearly 2 years
after its release.
After an amazing year on the road which
included festival sets at NXNE, CMJ, ACL Fest and more, Quiet Company
kicked off 2014 in the studio to write and record their highly
anticipated 4th full length Transgressor, their most explosive and
exposed collection of songs to date. Recorded in 14 intense days of
live tracking at Orb Recording Studios in Austin, the band captured a
guitar-driven larger-than-life sound with Matt Noveskey (Blue October)
producing and the legendary Tim Palmer (U2, Pearl Jam, The Cure) mixing.
Frontman Taylor Muse's characteristically introspective writing style
is in full force as he tells tales of love, despair, pain, and
redemption, reflecting on his marriage, from burgeoning young love to a
relationship tested through time.
With its soaring guitars and
throbbing bass lines drawing comparisons to Foo Fighters, Pavement and
Manchester Orchestra, Quiet Company’s Transgressor will be leading the
way as rock makes a return to form.
