TheFormality

Austin, TX, USA

The Formality is an alternative indie rock band of fun light-hearted teens known for creating music with strong hooks, catchy instrumentals, and dressing very nicely. The band formed in early 2022 after Benicio Arce (Drummer) invited Kyan Blacklock (Singer/Bassist) to learn covers. The band soon got members Richie George (Guitarist) through social media, then Jeremy Frey (Guitarist) after seeing him perform in the courtyard of their school. The group quickly started creating music and after getting comfortable with live shows, recorded their own songs. The Formality takes influence from groups such as The Backseat Lovers, Arctic Monkeys, and Vampire Weekend, as well as having a strong jazz influence. They hope that in the future they could make a career in music and make songs that people can relate to and feel close to. While they are still new in the industry, they have incredible drive and will continue to work to make music they love.
