SubModern Buzz Bands
The duo of August & J originally made music together almost two decades ago in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, playing shows and winning fans. They eventually split up, but kept making music on their own. After 15 years apart, the pair got back together in the fall of 2007 and immediately started writing songs again. August & J started writing songs every Saturday afternoon, until they had enough material to start quietly releasing digital EPs. After all these years, the pair have finally put out their first full-length album, 40. Their new single “For Once” is landing at radio now, and also will appear on the upcoming SubModern sampler CD #041. The track definitely hearkens back to late ‘90s Alt-Rock radio.
