The Films

Freshly transplanted from their hometown of Denver, Colorado, where they attended the same small high school and played in various bands (together and separately), "The Films": Michael Trent (vox, guitar), Kenneth Harris (guitar, keys, vox), Jake Sinclair (bass, vox), and Adam Blake (drums) have recently relocated to the small, historic, art-driven town of Charleston, South Carolina. With influences and interests such as Elvis Costello, The Pixies, Elliott Smith, and The Zombies, "The Films" create a sound similar to what you might hear if The Beatles "White Album" asked Weezer's "Pinkerton" to come over for a few drinks and then spent the night dancing to The Smiths "Strangedays, Here We Come". "I'd like to think that we have a modern sound with obvious influences from 60's brit pop and 80's new wave" Trent says. "No big tricks up our sleeves, just a lot of focus on songwriting and melody."
