Founded in the high desert of Provo, Utah but currently based in Los Angeles, The Moth & The Flame arrived in 2011 and quickly earned a fervent fan following and worldwide applause for their heady brand of lush, atmospheric indie. NPR's "All Songs Considered" hailed the band's "creative intertwining of compelling music and strong visuals," while NYLON praised 2013's "&" EP as "a layered, complex collection of rock songs that probably has Chris Martin wishing he came up with them himself." What's more, The Guardian proclaimed the EP's "Sorry" to be "as brilliant as Flaming Lips, by which we mean it has the brightness, the sheer surface dazzle, of the Lips' best music."
A complex and inventive live outfit, The Moth & The Flame has also spent considerable time on the road, including countless headline shows, tours alongside The Naked And Famous and longtime friends Imagine Dragons, and festival appearances at such international gatherings as Austin's South By Southwest (SXSW), Toronto's North By Northeast (NXNE), and the UK's The Great Escape.
The Moth & The Flame is: Brandon Robbins (vocals, guitar) * Mark Garbett (keyboards/vocals) * Andrew Tolman (drums) * Michael Goldman (bass, guitar, vocals).
