1- If extroversion had a musical embodiment, it would be in the sounds and rhythms of Brooklyn newcomers LEGS. Blending modern indie pop with Stax-worthy hooks, they are a mobile cauldron of everything retro and cosmopolitan. LEGS was formed in 2013 by Seattle-based Tito Ramsey, his brother Jack, their childhood friend Charles Larson, and Ecuadorian brothers Juan Miguel and Herman Marin.

Their self-titled EP attracted early press when their single “So Obvious” was featured in the 2014 film Obvious Child, starring Jenny Slate and David Cross. Pitchfork ranked the Obvious Child soundtrack as one of the top six of the summer.

Produced by Nick Stumpf (Caveman, Coke Weed) and tracked in Quito, Ecuador, their debut album, Altitud (self-released on April 2015), represents a cohesive statement of collective musical vision developed over two years of touring and recording. At moments, the songs veer into asymmetrical art-rock, with rises and falls that nod to Stop Making Sense. At others, they swing unapologetically into the great tradition of disco, with tishy hi-hats and soaring synth pads.

Wear your dancing shoes.

LEGS is 100% guaranteed to make you feel athletic, kinetic, sexy, benevolent, cosmopolitan, declamator, exotic, extroverted, hungry, naive, nocturnal, and possibly wry.

Past shows have brought them to Quito, Cuenca, Guayaquil and Portoviejo (Ecuador), BRIC Arts Media in Brooklyn, The Wassaic Project in Upstate NY, Doe Bay Festival in the San Juan Islands, CMJ in New York, Timbrrr Winter Music Festival in Washington State, and the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art in the Berkshires. During Fall of 2015 LEGS toured the Pacific North West, with stops in Tacoma, Seattle, Indianola, Yakima, and Olympia. The summer of 2016 was occupied by a week-long tour in Ecuador. And in November 2016, LEGS performed at El Descanso (Outdoor Music Festival), in Cuenca.

LEGS has shared the stage with acts such as Los Amigos Invisibles, Midnight Magic, Rubblebucket, Leisure Cruise, Cody Chesnutt, Erica Esso, Sisters, La Máquina Camaleón, Superhuman Happiness, amongst many other.

2- The duo of Jeffrey Harland and Matt Bullimore formed Oakland based noise pop group Legs in 2011.

The two had been friends for a long time and had played in bands before deciding to join forces and begin recording. Inspired by the noisy pop found on labels like mid-80's Creation and Flying Nun (Bullimore was born in New Zealand and grew up as a fan of the label), Harland and Bullimore spent a year as a duo recording project only as Matt learned to play drums and they honed their sound. Slowly they began to add members to the band - the first Ameilia Adams on vocals, then Kevin Walker and Spencer Hicks -- as they painstakingly worked on recording an album. After hooking up with San Francisco label Loglady and finishing up some songs, the band released Pass the Ringo in the spring of 2013 ~ Tim Sendra Rovi

3 - A side project featuring three of the 5 members of the Charleston emo band Newgrounds Death Rugby. The project combines the classic hard-hitting lyricism of NGDR with a shoegaze sound.
