Economy is where the LA melody-mavens of The Tender Box score all their points. Specialized in rock music with a dark undercurrent, expertly equipped to do as much as it can with as little as possible. Some guitar, a throbbing bass line, an insistent drum pound, a touch of sampling and synth when it fits, and a perfect vocal melody or two – there's not much else these guys have use for, and it's a recipe that suits both the concert hall and the dance floor.

Joey Medina (vocals, guitar), Ric Moon (guitar), Steve Mungarro (bass, vocals) and Chuck Gil (drums)

Every track is a multi-layered tapestry of melody, harmony and post-punk dissonance.

Listen:

The Tender Box - "Beautiful Sin" (mp3)

Enjoy!
