Soccer Mom consists of Dan Parlin, Danielle Deveau, Justin Kehoe, and William Scales. Their origins lie in the late 2000's when singer/guitarist, Parlin, returned to Massachusetts from San Francisco armed with a wealth of ideas that, with time, brought the group to life. After serving in a range of Boston acts, including E.R., Get Help and The Spanish Armada (all onThe Beatings' Midriff Records imprint), Parlin cemented the foundations of Soccer Mom when bassist Deveau joined full-time. In due course fellow E.R. sideman and Spanish Armadaprincipal William Scales enlisted as second guitarist, along with Spanish Armada drummerDavid Kaplan. In 2010, with what they describe as "a collective caesura among the various competing projects", the band reaped well-deserved attention for their debut 7". They have since recorded this breath-taking 6-song EP with Shaun Curran at The Napoleon Complex in Somerville, MA, which they mastered with Eric Baird at Half Son of Audio.The departure ofKaplan in early 2011 left vacant the drum chair for another E.R. cohort, drummer Justin Kehoe, with whom they continue to deliver their blistering live performances. Soccer Mom's distinct sound emerges from a detailed exploration of intimate connections between contrasting forces. Through melody and dischord, clean tones and chaotic feedback, they find a balance between the referential and the staggeringly new. The vocals are often sparse and quietly deconstruct conventional song structure amidst a whirlwind of dual guitar histrionics. http://www.soccermomboston.com 100m records <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Soccer+Mom">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
