The Foons are a synth-heavy indie-rock band out of Chicago, with roots in the Bay Area. The group is comprised of songwriter and multi-Instrumentalist Erik Rothlind, Ross Donewald on keys, drummer/producer Taed Cejtin, and his older twin brothers Sam and Will Cejtin on bass and guitar. The Foons blend tender-punk-indie-pop, with experimental and electronic music.
Displaying their swarmingly multi-layered sound, check out “Traveling” from The Foons. A sonically splendid genre-bender, the band produces a vibrant sound that wears its experimental ethos on its sleeve ala Grizzly Bear and Deerhunter.
“We are trying to point out that in this day and age the information that you create from being a member of society holds a certain amount of value and you take from that what you will,” says Rothlind.
