The Plagiarists
Straight outta Les Bois, The Plagiarists meld an indie garage rock ethos with playfully dyslexic lyrics. It’s a surreal place where a song can change keys every two measures, commemorate the Battle of Britain, or slip quantum mechanics into a song about hot rods and karma (or should that really be carma?).
Band extrovert, multi-instrumentalist Jackie Elo’s vocals reverberates like an old soul with a kind heart. Drummer Kacey Martinez keeps the rhythms tight but not too tight, because music ought to organically ebb and flow. A rocker at heart, Kelsey Aldrich adds his guitar chops and sweet bass tones to the mix. Vocalist, guitarist, and Bass VI aficionado Jason Dykstra sees music in color and loves the sound of 60 Cycle Hum in the morning.
