The Rescues


The Rescues are an American rock band from LA, California, formed in 2008. Their music can be classified as Indie Pop/Rock, and is notable for its use of 4-part vocal harmonies (all 4 members are singers as well as multi-instrumentalists) [1].


History

"The Rescues" were formed in 2008 by singer/songwriters and multi instrumentalists Kyler England, Rob Giles, Adrianne Gonzalez and Gabriel Mann, who met while performing on the singer-songwriter circuit in L.A.. While all members had experienced individual success prior to forming the group [2], the group has proved to be greater than the sum of its parts, sometimes described as an "Indie Supergroup" [3][2]. The Rescues' music has been placed in multiple high-profile TV shows, such as One Tree Hill, Private Practice, and Grey’s Anatomy (the latter featuring five Rescues songs, among them the song “Break Me Out".)[4]. In addition to TV placements, many of their songs have won, and achieved honorable mentions in prestigious songwriting contests such as the John Lennon Songwriting Contest and the International Songwriting Competition[5].

The band released their first record - a four song, self titled EP - in March 2010. In June of that year they've released the LP "Let Loose The Horses", which has garnered notability and acclaim among various online blogs and music review websites [1][2][6], and has been featured on Best Buy's "Find Them First" list on July 2010 [7]. The band is currently touring the US in support of "Let Loose The Horses".
