On The Run

Each member of 1997 comes from diverse backgrounds, yet by meshing all of their styles and influences into a musical melting pot, the band has created a sound and style that is startlingly fresh and distinctive. The male and female harmonies summon elements of contemporary emo, lovelorn pop, groove, and acoustic folk sing-along. The final product defies easy categorization and serves as a refreshing aural canvas for the talents of five unique people with something to say to the world. 1997 will strongly appeal to fans of The Beatles, 10,000 Maniacs, Fleetwood Mac and Straylight Run! For fans of: Fleetwood Mac, Yellowcard, Straylight Run, Bright Eyes
