Biography
The Vertebrates are a three-piece band from Providence, RI. Their sound is assembled from the shadowy, oblique aspects of Echo and the Bunnymen and the Pixies, the bright, knives-on-steel guitars of Big Star, and the beautifully simple melodies found in the music of the Velvet Underground, and Wilco. These elements along with a fondness for playing dice with their musical universe, generates a raw, yet formal musical texture.
