Summer Like The Season

Summer Like The Season is an indie electronic / art rock / experimental pop band based in Detroit, MI.

FFO: St. Vincent, Animal Collective, The Flaming Lips, Sylvan Esso, Grimes 

Summer Like The Season was born out of the musical musings of Summer Krinsky. Summer’s sound is characterized by poppy vocals mingling with polyrhythmic harmonies, bizarre breakbeats, and ethereal soundscapes. Exploring themes of this cyborg era, the musical/lyrical content examines the intermediary role technology plays in modern identity. The sound is stylized by the use of mixing and production as a compositional foundation, tracing the edge between live instrumentation and contemporary electronics. Summer experiments with programming novel audio controllers and designing interactive installations, pushing boundaries to ameliorate human/digital expression. For the live show meticulous songwriting collides with bursting noise, Summer plays drum kit and sings alongside Scott Murphy (synth/electric violin/mpc) and Liam McNitt (guitar/backup vox/electronics).

“Perhaps the most unique quality of a Summer Like The Season song is her voice, which can be equal parts angel and alien, hitting and sustaining these impossibly elastic pitches that sound like something a NASA probe might have captured while floating through a distant nebula.” -Jeff Milo (Detroit Metro Times, NPR)

“Led by the enigmatic Summer Krinsky, their music defies genre boundaries with a mesmerizing blend of pop-infused vocals, polyrhythmic harmonies, and ethereal soundscapes.” -Underground Apex

"Brightly hued art pop bursting with sound and color, “Hum” is as colorful and surreal as a Dali painting." -Bandcamp's New & Notable
