Anathallo

 

Anathallo is a 7 member band originally from Mt. Pleasant, Michigan band now living in my home city of Chicago. Originally from Michigan myself this band is extra special to me. I love to see Michigan folks making it. It helps for me that this band occupies the same vocal, indie rock place as The Most Serene Republic which makes them endlessly listenable for me.

released 11/18/08

They are fresh off a European and Japanese tour and will be at SXSW this Spring (2009) supporting their current release, Canopy Glow. Until then they are playing a handful of shows across the country, seemingly randomly. It’s worth checking out their website to see the schedule or at least look at their nice little blog they have going.
