Sarah Jeanette, Jeremy James, Jeff Mizushima, Matt Fuller and Danny Alfaro
Influences
California and the west. Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys. Love. Eachother. Exploiting past experiences with extreme heart and poetic melody. Bands: everything from Thin Lizzy and Gram Parsons to early 90's rock/punk (Hole,Nirvana,Pumpkins) to the new bands of this movement.
"It’s the dream. The dream to do what you love. Some do it for fame. Some do it for passion. Like so many bands in Los Angeles, it’s this dream that makes them play night after night at clubs, bars and bowling alleys. You name it and they’ve played there, often playing for nearly nothing but simply just for the love of playing music.
One such band is The Mulhollands. They took their name after Hollywood’s famed street, known for its long winding road high above the City of Angels with picturesque views. It’s also were The Mulhollands would often meet and write songs together.
Together, Sarah Jeanette along with guitarist Jeremy James, bassist Jeff Mizushima, guitarist Matt Fuller and drummer Danny Alfaro, The Mulhollands have created a power pop sound with a punk attitude.
It’s hard not to like The Mulhollands. Jeanette’s stage presence seems natural and unforced, probably due to her upbringing by her famous mother. And with lyrics like, "It’s just another sunny day in California" and soaring arrangements in songs such as "Baby Its Alright" and "Beautiful Night" it’s only natural that, with their SoCal sound, they list the Beach Boys as one of their influences. Their songs are laced with addicting melodies and catchy lyrics. No doubt about it, The Mulhollands are a SoCal band, their sound reminiscent of an ending road-trip driving down the Pacific Coast Highway, hair blowing in the wind with the top down. Their songs are that good which is not too overpowering but yet still able to generate enough punch to rock your socks off. If the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ laid back sound did what it did to identify SoCal rock, The Mulhollands are doing the same by injecting a romanticizing feel to it.
In a city where there are more downs than ups, The Mulhollands are destined for success, their songs such as "Malibu" recently being featured on television shows. They’re having fun and playing music on their own terms through pure talent and perseverance. Like the long windy road that they’ve adopted as their name, The Mulhollands are perched high atop the City of Angels, admiring the view and enjoying the ride." -PICKSYSTICKS
