based out of Chicago, Attack the Sound is a Chi-Pop band, drawing from genres like indie pop and soul. Their vocals are soulful, their song writing sharp and honest and their aesthetic feels cinematic yet intimate. They bring out narratives that feel personal, and present them in a universal way, giving the listeners music that feels like catharsis.
