About the artist

The Halo Benders

Halo Benders, the brainchild of indie rock legends Calvin Johnson and Doug Martsch, are a band that defies categorisation. With their unique blend of lo-fi garage rock, punk energy, and infectious pop melodies, the Halo Benders have been pushing boundaries and breaking rules since the early 90s. Fronted by the enigmatic Johnson, whose deadpan vocals and witty lyricism have become synonymous with the band's sound, the Halo Benders are a force to be reckoned with. Martsch, best known as the frontman of indie rock darlings Built to Spill, brings his signature guitar wizardry to the table, creating a sonic landscape that is as unpredictable as it is captivating. Their debut album, "God Don't Make No Trash or Up Your Ass With Broken Glass," was met with critical acclaim upon its release in 1994, cementing the band's status as one of the most exciting and innovative acts in the underground music scene. Since then, they have released a string of critically acclaimed albums, including "The Rebels Not In" and "Don't Tell Me Now," each showcasing the band's unparalleled musicianship and infectious energy. With their infectious hooks, witty lyrics, and raucous live performances, the Halo Benders are a band that defies expectations and breaks boundaries. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to their music, one thing's for sure - you won't be able to resist the irresistible charms of the Halo Benders.
