About the artist

American indie rock band from Orlando, Florida, founded by singer-songwriter/guitarist Ryan Costello and drummer/percussionist Matthew Antolick, who met as students at the University of South Florida; active 2006-2009. In 2003 Costello sold his possessions and spent two years doing humanitarian agricultural work with returned refugees in Afghanistan, an experience that shaped the band's music. Both Hugh Thompson songs appear on their debut album 'Our Fathers and the Things They Left Behind' (2006; digitally reissued 2017). [Source: Wikipedia / Spotify-AllMusic bio / Bandcamp]
