About the Artist

We Are Scientists, comprised of the core duo Keith Murray (vocals, guitar) and Chris Cain (bass, vocals), alongside drummer Andy Newhouse, have carved out a distinctive niche in the alternative music scene since their formation in the early 2000s. Hailing from Berkeley, California, but quickly establishing their roots in the vibrant New York City music circuit, they quickly gained attention with their debut album, 'With Love and Squalor,' released in 2006. This critically acclaimed record, featuring anthems like 'Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt' and 'The Great Escape,' cemented their reputation for crafting catchy, intelligent indie-pop with a post-punk edge.

Their subsequent releases, including 'Brain Trust,' 'Barbara,' and 'TV en Français,' have consistently showcased their evolution as musicians and songwriters. While maintaining their trademark melodic sensibility and lyrical dexterity, they've explored new sonic territories, incorporating elements of synth-pop and more experimental sounds into their repertoire. Live, We Are Scientists are renowned for their energetic and often humorous stage presence. Murray and Cain's witty banter, combined with the band's tight musicianship, creates an engaging and unforgettable experience for the audience.
