Combining the thoughtfulness of early Transit with elements of angsty pop-punk in the vein of Real Friends, Histories have put their own distinctive print on what is now a tried and tested formula and look to build on their early promise with the release of this summer’s album.

Forming in the Winter of 2012 from the ashes of former project Ambrister, Histories soon entered the studio to record debut EP “I’m Still Doing Well”, which would drop in the fall of 2013 preceded by debut single “Success Is Not Killing Yourself”. The band’s reversion to a sound encompassing a range of influences was a natural next step; showing great promise if not total cohesion of their newly incorporated punk, alternative and emo stylings.

Building on this foundation, Histories followed up with Fri(ends) in March 2014, showcasing a chemistry, maturity and effortless relatability promised but not fully realized with the 2013 record. Despite only being three tracks in length, the progress from the debut record was evident, more cohesion and more natural in their sound was evident immediately.

As 2014 progressed, so did the reputation of the talented 4-piece; expanding their touring circles beyond Missouri alone, and elsewhere throughout the Midwest and beyond; taking their organic brand of rock to Texas, Colorado, Oklahoma and Kansas as well as supporting the likes of HRVRD, Icarus The Owl and Better Off.

Having joined forces with Scott Goodrich at Nu Tone Studios in San Francisco, lead single ‘Cicada’ will precede the release of Histories’ upcoming debut full-length, due for a Q3 release.
