New Releases: The Dendrites

MooneyEditor-in-Chief Tyler Hardy and Torrie Atchison, one half (and guitarists) of Lubbock The Dendrites, are sitting in a makeshift sound booth in Hardy’s home. You can tell without them saying it, that they’ve been staring at their computer screen for the last five straight hours–at least. The Dendrites, the already mentioned Hardy and Atchison, along with drummer Corey Alvarez and cellist Yvette Lara, have been creating a sound all their own–focused mainly on the classical melodic interplay between Hardy and Atchison’s guitars. It all feels precise and on point–everything from Alvarez’ sometimes subtle, sometimes commanding drum play and Lara’s calming cello to Hardy and Atchison’s intertwining guitars. This Saturday, The Dendrites play at The GlassyAlley to release their self-titled debut EP.

Tyler Hardy: March. Torrie Atchison: I write the skeleton of them. Year in Review: Top 40 Lubbock Songs of 2012: 40-31 « New Slang.

Charles Moon is a busy figure in the Lubbock music scene already, but he influences it most profoundly here. 36.

Oh how short-lived The Dendrites were. 35. We’ve not heard this kind of dark folk(the swampy, Spanish moss and voodoo variety) in Lubbock, possibly ever. 34. 33.

Five Quick Q’s: Tyler Hardy of The Dendrites Posted by tdmooney on March 3, 2012 · 3 Comments Photo Courtesy of the Artist By: Thomas D. Mooney Editor-in-Chief We recently caught up with Tyler Hardy, guitarist of The Dendrites, to discuss the emergence of the four-piece in the Lubbock music scene. You can see The Dendrites at a handful of upcoming shows, with the earliest being tonight at The Depot District Obar. Tyler Hardy: Torrie Atchison and I played together in a band here in town around 5 years ago called The Clits. TH: Honestly, The Dendrites as a name doesn’t have any super deep meaning to us.

TH: The only shows we have played was one open mic as a two-piece with Daniel at Skooners and the recent Animal Benefit Show hosted at The Prairie Fire. TH: Currently our objective is just familiarizing Lubbock with who we are and what we are doing. Rate this: i 1 Vote.
