About
Made up of three members in three different cities, Canopy Climbers writes and records via the internet, a modern band stitched together by technology. Cory Nelson, Alan Thomas, and Nathan Miller originally from Little Rock, Arkansas make up the group producing music stylistically between Mute Math’s energetic Rock and Sleeping At Last’s lush pop.
The band’s debut album, ‘Distances’, was an exercise in restraint, ambient tones compliment the electronic underpinnings which swell throughout the album. On their sophomore release, ‘Miles’, little is held back as sonically addicting melodies burst from every corner of the album. Lead singles “Stuck” and “Always” lead the charge, displaying the band’s firm footing in both an Indie/Rock world and one of mainstream radio Pop. With ‘Miles’, Canopy Climbers skipped the sophomore slump and raised the bar.
Now with ‘Blindfold’ EP, the trio is changing any preconceived notions fans had for the music. The four songs rely heavily on pulsating rhythms and darker electronic tones. “Chance” is a Canopy Climber’s anthem set to match the EP’s other tracks in mood, but the biggest surprise comes with the hip/hop appearance on the bridge of “Secret.”
