This is not your typical indie rock. The Southern Backtones are an exciting blend of raw brit-influenced rock with roots planted firmly in Texas. A southwestern feel reminiscent of Morrison and The Doors with an edge akin to early eighties brit-rock powerhouses a la The Cult and David Bowie.
After spending their musical childhood on the surf-punk playground, the Southern Backtones grew up quickly only to rebel against their roots rock heritage.
A mellowing of their roots-angst, and embracing Brit-pop and psychedelia influences, transitioned their music to a darker, more bohemian sound. Thus allowing them to become who they were from the beginning--psychedelic savants who are constantly at risk of diluting their genius by over thinking their music.
