Song: Leave It
play/start is a queer pop-rock band based in Portland, Oregon. "The group digs fuzzy tones, aggressive yet thoughtful lyrics and generally simple riffs with sharp corners" (Portland Tribune, May 2010). Members include Candise Branum (bass), Leslie Mowrer (guitar), Lorenzo Triburgo (drums), and Sarah Van Dyck (vocals).
play/start is releasing The Alibi, their first full-length album, in May 2011. The 10-track album will be released digitally and on CD; it was recorded and mixed at Portland's Type Foundry by Jeremy Romagna. The band (with former bassist Bryn Knowles) released their EP in 2009 with "5 solid and fully charged tracks" (Gina Pensiero, onesweetsong.blogspot.com, January 2010). The EP was recorded at Portland's Jackpot! Recording Studio by Kendra Lynn and is available at CD Baby and iTunes. play/start will be touring the West Coast in July 2011, with shows in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Eugene, Seattle and Portland.
