Really From aims to explore themes of place, self, and genuine emotion through music as their creative, unifying outlet. The Boston-based band derive their sound from influences like Philip Glass, Japanese Math Rock, Avante-Garde Jazz, and Minimalism. Over the years, they have gone through several lineup changes but now consist of Chris Lee-Rodriguez on guitar and vocals, Michi Tassey on synth bass, keys, and vocals, Matt Hull on trumpet and Sander Bryce on Drums. Instrumental improvisation and raw vulnerability underlie the diverse collective’s refined musicality without sounding like a gimmick.
