Laura Pleasants (Kylesa)
SPB: When you're on tour, how is it decided (or who decides) where you'll eat?
Pleasants: The promoter generally sets the schedule. Sometimes they will ask when we would like to eat and then we'll decide on the spot.

Music / History 101 • December 10, 2024
Hey folks, Toby here, and the SPB team asked me to provide some insights about some stuff from our catalog now that Red Scare is (you gotta be shittin’ me?!) twenty years old. Specifically a “memory or modern take” on some past releases, and they picked some doozies, so let’s … Read more

Kylesa
From The Vaults, Vol. 1

While the band continued to work on a sixth studio album, which is slated for release later this spring, they also wanted to give the fans something special in the interim. From the Vaults, Vol. 1 … Read more

Static Tensions
Prosthetic (2009)
Is it really time for another Kylesa album? It may only seem like yesterday but it has been quite a while since their last album, Time Will Fuse its Worth, and the band looks intent on besting that effort in every way.

Time Will Fuse its Worth
Prosthetic (2006)
Kylesa is a conundrum. They straddle so many genres and styles of music that it is almost fruitless to attempt to classify them. However, I believe that this fact is part of their appeal where in other bands' cases, it would be a detriment.
