Chorus

Philadelphia, PA's Literature features Kevin Attics, Nathaniel Cardaci, Chris Schackerman, and Seth Whaland. Attics, who'd written for numerous music trades as a teen, met Cardaci and Whaland at the house venue they both operated in Austin, TX. Cardaci and Whaland each ran small imprint labels and, a million adventures later, the trio decided to form a band. Upon moving to Philadelphia, the group befriended Schackerman who also joined the fold. In 2012, following a well-received single and a track on Gerard Cosloy's CASUAL VICTIM PILE II compilation they released their debut album, ARAB SPRING, which became a cult hit within the indie-pop community. That album is sharp and immediate, almost mod-ish in it's attack, but always tuneful and going for melody where it counts. Autumn of 2013 saw the band begin work on their second album, CHORUS, with lauded engineer Gary Olson (whose body of work includes records by Crystal Stilts, Mad Scene and the Beets) at his Marlborough Farms studio in Brooklyn, NY. The result is an album that is as immediate as it is timeless, full of effortlessly catchy and well-crafted tunes that echo pop legends like Smiths and Orange Juice.
