When two great bands collide creatively, it’s bound to produce something amazing. That’s the story of States. Brothers Stephen and Bryan Laurenson collaborated with Mindy White when their bands, Copeland and Lydia disbanded in 2009. Since then, the band has been hush-hush about their secret side project until now. The trio’s collaborative effort is an absolute delight. The group combines the best of their two bands – sublime arrangements, engaging lyrics and dreamy vocals. White enchants listeners with her unique, melodic voice.
Recently, the band has released their well awaited first EP Line ‘Em Up. Songs like Anxious, Asleep and Time to Begin are beautifully written and sung. White’s vocals on Asleep are hauntingly entrancing. Generation stands out amongst the rest with its fun lyrics and up-beat tempo. Line ‘Em Up is definitely a record worth downloading.
