Desario is John Conley, Michael Yoas, Jim Rivas and Mike Carr. Their members have been in many well-established and popular Sacramento area indie rock bands including California Oranges, Holiday Flyer, and Rocketship.
Desario will release it's debut record "Zero Point Zero" on Darla Records in January 2009. We plan on doing short treks around the west coast to promote the disc. If you'd like us to come to you town, let us know.
"I’m quite enamored with a self-titled three-song disc by Desario, and if this is a taste of the forthcoming album the band’s still working on (Zero Point Zero, due in October from once-local indie Darla Records), it’s gonna be a real peach. “Cane Cola” is all gleaming chrome over pastoral sweetness, more melodic and soaring than the reworked Joy Divisionisms of Interpol, with John Conley’s friendly and inviting voice surfing over his and Michael Yoas’ intertwined clean electric guitars, with bassist Mike Carr underpinning the song while drummer Jim Rivas splatters around like Moby Grape’s Skip Spence on “Omaha.” The second track, “Fine Time,” continues the feel, while “Nautical Ways” has more jangle along with shouted background vocals. All three are winners; Desario has a sense of melody and dynamics that is captivating."
