A sense of urgency drives Silversun Pickups. The GRAMMY® Award-nominated Los Angeles quartet create and perform with eloquence and intensity all at once. Guitars may restlessly roar and rumble, only to be reined in by the spell of a saccharine melody or a honeyed hook. This push-and-pull has catapulted the group—Brian Aubert [vocals, guitar], Nikki Monninger [bass, vocals], Christopher Guanlao [drums], and Joe Lester [keys]—out of a crowded and competitive local scene and into the wide open space of some of the world’s biggest stages. They’ve thrived as one of this century’s most consistent and quietly impactful rock bands. Their full-length debut, Carnavas [2006], went Gold and spawned the Platinum staple “Lazy Eye.” On its heels, they logged two back-to-back Top 10 entries on the Billboard 200 with Swoon [2009]—featuring the Gold-certified “Panic Switch”—and Neck of the Woods [2012]. Coursing through culture, they have landed dozens of film and television placements, ranging from the cult classic Jennifer’s Body to NETFLIX’s The Lincoln Lawyer. They’ve held their own on tours with the likes of Foo Fighters and Muse, sold out successive headline jaunts, and performed on late-night television shows such as Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! Beyond praise from NPR, Consequence, and more, Pitchfork hailed 2022’s Physical Thrills as “their most varied and carefree songs in over a decade.” Now, Silversun Pickups meet the moment with their seventh full-length LP, Tenterhooks [New Machine Recordings]. It’s an anxious, emotionally charged, and unapologetic collection of ten tracks appropriate for the times, yet as timeless as anything they’ve done.
