Brothers Zach and Nathan Hamer, along with Miranda Zickler and Jillian Walker, came together in 2014 to form a unique breed of string band; one proudly defiant of preconceived notions of what fits under the label ‘Americana’. Home from touring their breakout full length The Heartland, the band spread to take a breath. All four found themselves in the midst of major life changes both as people and as artists; moving out of the house they‘d shared for the previous two years to new cities (the Hamers to Tacoma, Walker to Bellingham, and Zickler to Seattle) and broadening the total palette from which they draw as musicians.

“Each track on Stay Up Late was written separately,” explains Zickler, “but around the same time, so the undercurrents of the songs have the same sort of pulse and connecting fibers. At our first rehearsal they all came together in very natural and unexpected ways.”

The songs on Stay Up Late ring with the vibrancy of exploration and discovery. “In our first year as a band, we spent many nights on the living room floor of Miranda’s closest childhood friend, who happens to be Finnish” explains Nathan Hamer. “Kuinka became an expression we used to consider and unravel the seemingly insurmountable obstacles life often throws at us. We’d love for our music to be a soundtrack to adventure. The name represents finding your way, for both us and our listeners.”
