What started as after school music lessons turned into a decade of collaboration between Isaac Viorst (guitar, vocals) and Matthew Ashman (drums, vocals) and a musical amalgamation of dad rock meets The Strokes. Alongside bandmates Jonah Bierman (bass) and Max Mendelsohn (guitar), they released an entirely self-recorded, produced, and mastered debut album, Out There. While gigging and recording are their vices, the band leads a double life attending NYU Tisch and Steinhardt. The Radio Relics have become a staple of New York’s indie live scene, opening for Telescreens, and recently on a lineup including Laundry Day, Quarters of Change, The Thing, and Sid Simons, to raise money for the California Fire Foundation.
