Brothers Dana and Alden McWayne, along with a troupe of multi-instrumental artists, come together to create jazzy melodies with indie sounds inspired by their unconventional upbringing in Eugene, Oregon. The band’s debut album Quiet Music for Young People was released in August of 2023 on the heels of a viral moment surrounding their single “Let’s Go to Trader Joe’s.” Later in November, “Dragon Fly” soundtracked almost 300,000 TikTok creations spurring the band to hit the studio quicker than expected. They recruited fan of the band Jared Solomon (Sza, Remi Wolf, Teezo Touchdown) to produce their sophomore LP “Coyote, You’re My Star”, and they are set to tour North America and Europe across festivals and headline shows to support the new LP. ‘Coyote, You’re My Star’ has already been met with rousing approval. Dana & Alden have seen air time on the Zane Lowe show on Apple Muisc as well as playlist covers like Spotify’s State of Jazz.
