Local band Lawn talks Miami's music scene
Miami band Lawn is new to the local scene, so we asked them a couple of questions about their journey.
Responses were edited for clarity
When did you start your band?
Romeo (singer songwriter), Cooper (bass) and Daniel (guitar) started the band last summer after working together in a different band.
They decided to leave that project and start their own band so they could explore the indie genre more deeply. Once they found Cliff (drums), Lawn was created.
How would you describe your sound?
Lawn's sound, which takes inspiration from psychedelic rock and shoegaze, is raw yet danceable. Our new EP "House Party Hero" explores a range of styles, from grunge influences ("Overdoser") to the energizing guitar solo on "Prom Night."
What's the best part of Miami's music scene? What are the challenges?
The best part
Romeo: The jazz scene. I've seen a lot of great performances at the Fish House and Lagniappe.
Cliff and Cooper: The diversity of venues and the people that go to them. You've got clubs, bars, waterfront restaurants and rundown warehouses.
Daniel: It's diverse and growing rapidly. Especially when it comes to Latin and EDM music, Miami is the place to be if you want to see firsthand how those genres are evolving.
