Having spent decades in groups spanning genres, Brooklyn quintet La Pêche have assembled to become your new favorite band with their latest EP Bright and Bending. Their first project in a few years, the folkgazers are ready for their re-introduction with a little more wisdom up their sleeves. With infectious and gritty guitar riffs and the silky smooth yet haunting vocals of frontwoman Krista Holly, Bright and Bending is the perfect soundtrack to stay warm with as winter approaches in the city. The EP is out today via Bakery Outlet Records!

With a hint of 90s grit and driving beats, La Peche stretch their legs on Bright and Bending with impossibly catchy licks and intriguing tones. From the phased-out first notes of "Be Gentle," to "Red Tambourine," which tells the tale of brother and sister growing up and growing apart, it is clear that the group are more than your average indie band. Then there's the rocking "Doesn't Matter," a sweet and gritty love song, for which the group are pleased to share the accompanying video today to celebrate the release!

Check out "Doesn't Matter" HERE and we encourage you to post and share! The EP is also streaming in full via Uproxx today!

After a brief spell away from music, Krista Holly picked up writing again drawing inspiration from both past and present. With her husband, and bassist, Dave Diem, she began reworking old songs and before long, was composing new tunes. Soon, there was a desire to perform and share some music. The two enlisted the talents of a few good friends and musicians. Stoked, La Pêche now includes the intricate and thoughtful guitar slaying of Drew DeMaio, the haunting voice of Keiko Ichinose to weave with Krista's provocative melodies, and the creative rhythms of Jefferson Gensterblum. La Pêche has an east coast tour in the works and more, so keep your eyes peeled for more from the quintet soon!
