PRESS
“Rebecca Coseboom - a female front woman with an incredible voice - proves she has enough swagger and sway to keep things interesting without ever being overstated” - CMJ
Does the mention of a band somewhere in-between Sigur Rós and the Cocteau Twins make those little hairs on the back of your neck tingle? If so, you owe it to yourself to check out Stripmall Architecture - SF Weekly
“Rebecca Coseboom's voice flutters around your head like a silky scarf and the whole is like a sonic manifestation of a romantic swoon…” - The Stranger, Seattle
“Earthy and airy, organic and dreamy, songs that surround you then suddenly take wing and fly away. Rebecca sings with a rarefied, alluring intimacy.” - MSNBC
"Stripmall Architecture themselves have a captivating presence, making their show as much about the performance as the music."
- SF Examiner
"This band is bound to become huge in, like, a minute—so go see them and experience these special intimate performances while you still can!"
- SF Examiner
"A mini-super group. Think sounds that could be movie soundtracks and you're getting close to this lot." - FutureSounds
"There are ten tracks on the album. I have to say there is not one that I don't like, they are all fabulous." - Seattle Post-Intelligencer
BIO
As members of San Francisco’s celebrated Halou, Ryan and Rebecca Coseboom built up a remarkable body of material and worked with a wide range of iconoclastic artists including DJ Shadow (on his infamous Radiohead remix), Low, Cocteau Twins guitarist Robin Guthrie, and the Velvet Underground’s John Cale. When Halou came to an end after a US tour with indie legend Bob Mould, they regrouped quickly and launched their new project, Stripmall Architecture.
In 2009, Stripmall Architecture released We Were Flying Kites, a bold debut that was “an impressive step forward” (John Richards, KEXP) and quickly gained support from indie radio including being touted by KCRW and KEXP as their song of the day.
The band has recently solidified its four-piece lineup with guitarist Tim Hingston and drummer Patrick Harte and regularly play to sell-out crowds in the Bay Area.
Now, in 2010, Stripmall Architecture are poised to release their next album, Feathersongs for Factory Girls, entirely funded by their dedicated fanbase across the US and the globe. Radium Girls is the first taste of the new album and precedes Rebecca’s upcoming guest vocal spot with James Lavelle’s UNKLE project.
