Fire in the Hamptons

Music – Los Angeles

It all started in 2009, when Zack Hampton was approached by producer Bert Selen with an idea to collaborate on songs for a studio album. The timing was perfect, Zack\'s former group had recently disbanded and he was venturing into a more melodic and musical form of expression. Zack and Bert spent over a year, writing and recording songs, which would eventually complete the album entitled \"FITH\". On stage, the concept transforms into a four piece band consisting of Zack on lead vocals, Aaron Bilyeu on drums, Ian Dowd on lead guitar and Emvy Venti on synth/piano/vocals. A colorful array of remixed styles, from the polyphonic buzz of the early 80’s synthesizers to intricately strummed delayed guitar lines all riding on the back bone of deep house thumping kicks inspires and arranges the sound of this indie-electro-pop band. Before the album has even been released, the band has been featured on music blogs including Indie Music Filter and Vents Magazine. Their song \"Humanimal\" has been played on LA\'s taste-maker station, KCRW.
