About Crystal Stilts
Artist Biography
The minimalist mood-makers Crystal Stilts initially formed in Brooklyn by way of Florida in 2003 as the duo of JB Townsend and Brad Hargett. The group soon added Andy Adler on bass and Frankie Rose on drums. From there, the quartet began releasing vinyl EPs and singles of what can best be described as lo-fi garage-goth-pop, influenced equally by the likes of Joy Division and Bauhaus as well as more obscure proto-indie acts like the Clean and the Embarrassment. In 2008, the aforementioned singles were culled together for a formal, self-titled full-length, issued on the Woodsist label. ~ Kenneth Herzog
