Band Review: The Storytellers


The Storytellers has its origins in Italy, but is currently based in Los Angeles.

As the two founding members capture their transplanting process on video they appear really young, but their music sounds much more experienced. They you remember that Uale and Fred had been in their previous band for five years already. I am not sure about Matt and Sam's previous experience, but overall the music sounds like they know what they are doing.

Working primarily as pop punk, they evoke a plaintive feeling in their songs, which you can best hear on "In the Middle of Nowhere". The rock roots are still noticeable, especially on the guitar for
"Living for the Anthem".

In addition to their original material, they have recorded several covers for their Youtube channel, including a take on "All I Want For Christmas Is You" that's different in a good way.

All the links I could find are below.
