Tall Birds is an indie, punk rock band from Seattle, Washington. Formed in 2005, the band consisted of ex-Catheters members Brian Standeford, Davey Brozowski and Leo Gebhardt along with a new bassist, Jiancarlo Cateriano. Standeford is the force behind the band,[1] whose sound has elements of psychedelic rock and has been compared to The Velvet Underground, Rolling Stones and Sonic Youth.[2] The band also embodies a chaotic and energetic sound, which could define it as a garage and acid rock [3] ensemble, influenced by the Stooges, Monoshock, Wipers and Royal Trux.[4]
