In Simple Intervals is the second album by Philadelphia 6-piece band
Audible. Recorded in songwriter Mike Kennedy's home studio (i.e, his
bedroom), this ten-song follow-up to Audible’s 2005 Polyvinyl Records
debut Sky Signal documents the sound of an unlikely band growing up
and moving beyond their early sound. Intervals sees Audible's
songwriting becoming more ambitious, retaining its off-kilter sense
of melody while reaching towards more robust arrangements and greater
sonic texturing. With influences ranging from the clean pop precision
of Fleetwood Mac to the ragged guitar interplay of 90s indie legends
Polvo (both referenced in two song titles), In Simple Intervals is
louder, and quieter, than their previous music. It is the sound of a
band challenging, and affirming, their love of making songs.
Audible began in 2000 as a four-track collaboration between
Philadelphia musician Mike Kennedy and his then-girlfriend Mary
Garito. As Mike was busy playing drums in several popular area groups
(matt pond PA, Mazarin, Lefty's Deceiver), the two never intended to
become an actual band. But after releasing a few home recorded EPs,
Kennedy was dared by Philly producer Brian McTear to record a proper
full-length record at McTear's Miner Street Studio. The resulting
album Sky Signal was picked up and released by Polyvinyl Records in
2005 to glowing reviews. Kennedy recruited several friends to perform
his songs live: girlfriend (now wife) Kristine Kennedy on bass,
longtime friend and collaborator Jim Kehoe on guitar, and the only
good drummer ever found on Craigslist, Steve Cawley. The band toured
throughout the year, playing with several monsters of indie rock such
as Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Okkervill River, and the Castanets. In
2007, Audible added 6th member Ed Hogarty (Bigger Lovers) on guitar
to bring additional counterpoint to Kehoe's precise guitar lines.
Their second album was recorded in the Kennedys’ bedroom and will be
self-released on May 19, 2009.
