“Bananaphone” by Raffi hit its first chord and in a moment of confusion and excitement, The Band CAMINO ran on stage to be met by 1,700 screaming fans.įrom the beginning, it was clear The Band CAMINO was going to deliver a great show.
The restless chatter suddenly turned to excited cheers as the lights dimmed. Photo by Jolie RolnickĪfter a few minutes of transition, the crowd was warmed up and ready for The Band CAMINO to take the stage. After playing an unreleased song (with Karah James who busted out some rap for this track), Valley closed with “Park Bench” then cleared the stage for The Band CAMINO. The band continued to perform songs off their new EP “Maybe-Side B,” as well as a few favorites from their 2016 album “ This Room is White.” Their youthful style and Canadian accents filled the room with shouts of “They are so cute!” and had many crowd members excited to see this band’s future. Valley, a band made up of Canadians Rob Laska, Michael Brandolino, Alex Dimauro and Karah James, opened the night with their hit “There’s Still A Light in the House.” It was suddenly clear that the crowd had many Valley fans ready to sing along with the young artists. 5, with stellar sets and loads of alternative hits. It teaches you to open yourself up.The Band CAMINO and Valley impressed the crowd at a packed venue at Marathon Music Works Sept. It teaches you that you’re in a bubble with limited perspective. The more perspective you have, the more you have to write about,” said Jordan. “Traveling is the fastest way to get more perspective. The musicians said being on the road has greatly influenced their sound. The Band CAMINO finished their second national headline tour this fall and will begin their first European tour in February. It’s important that you say what you mean.” “Music is a different language that everybody speaks. Understand what they’re saying and understand that you have a voice,” Jordan said. “Don’t get lost in the subject, get lost in the people around you. The Memphis-based group offered advice to university students pursuing careers in music. It gives you perspectives that you’d never have outside of just getting into the business,” said Stewart. “It brings together a bunch of likeminded peers. “I was a music business major and my classes were definitely informative to what I was doing and me growing up.”
“I don’t think college is for everyone, but if it’s important to you and your field then it is,” said Jordan. Jordan discussed college’s influence on their group. Jeffrey Jordan (lead singer), Spencer Stewart (guitar and vocals), Graham Rowell (bass) and Andrew Isbell (drums) formed The Band Camino in 2015 when the musicians were students at the University of Memphis.
From their first EP, “My Thoughts On You,” to their latest album, “Tryhard,” the group has nearly 2 million monthly listeners on Spotify and signed with Elektra Records in May 2019. With melodies reminiscent of The Killers and Franz Ferdinand, The Band CAMINO brings their own flare to a modern wave of rock music.
That single word encompassed the fervor among the audience as they stared at the stage like kids at Disney World. I remember my aunt turning to me, eyes wide, proclaiming a loud “wow,” mid-set. I first discovered the band last July at a Mo Pop Festival afterparty in Detroit. Distraction caught up with the band at the Riptide Music Festival in Fort Lauderdale to discuss their music and advice for college students. Less the tattoos and cool presence, the two could almost blend in as regular festival-goers. One-half of alternative rock group The Band CAMINO leaned against a stage gate, sipping Coors Light and chatting with fans.
