GLÖS - PUBLIC SPEAKER


ARTIST / BAND: GLÖS
SONG (MP3): PUBLIC SPEAKER
ALBUM: Harmonium
FILE UNDER: Indie / Ambient / Rock
LABEL: lovitt records

INFO: It all started as a few musical file transfers from laptop to laptop in a van while touring Europe as the band Engine Down, and ended as a full-blown album of musical compositions by means of the internet from opposite corners of America. Glös started as Keeley Davis (former frontman of Engine Down and bass/synth player for Denali) and Cornbread Compton (former drummer of Engine Down, Biology, and currently Heavens). Many years of playing in Engine Down together proved the duo had a naturally unique style of meshing melody and rhythm. When the discovery of song creation on computers became a reality, the two found strength and freedom in writing separately and then collaborating. Adding to each other's songs as if they were created mutually in the same room was natural and noticeable.
