Originally from Rochester, New York, Cusp makes 90s-indebted indie rock thats by turns thrashing and mesmerizing, yet always thoroughly attuned to the anxieties and paradoxes of modern life. After releasing a debut EP, 2021s Spill, and a single with Fire Talk Records, Cusp members Jen Bender (guitar, vocals), Gaelen Bates (guitar), and Matt Manes (bass) relocated to Chicago in 2022. There, the band immediately found its place among the citys diverse and close-knit independent music scene. The change of scenery inspired a generative period for the band, resulting in Cusps debut full-length, 2023s You Can Do It All.Cusps latest release, 2024s Thanks So Much EP, continues to refine the bands mix of thundering riffs, exploratory impulses, and exquisite melodies - its influences from across heavy rock, indie-pop, and shoegaze on full display. The band has recently grown to also include members Tommy Moore (drums) and Tessa OConnell (keyboards, vocals)
