The Anatomy of Frank

with Post Sixty Five and Julia Hiser

About The Anatomy of Frank: Post-pop quintet The Anatomy of Frank, who hail from the mountains of Virginia, quickly asserted themselves by touring expansively across North America within three months of their first performance in 2011. For two years they released nothing beyond an intriguing three-song EP entitled Relax, there’s nothing here but old pictures. In 2013 they pleased listeners around the world with their debut full-length, Pangaea, an enigmatic album that wanders from the carefree heights of pop to a moody, otherworldly realm of post-rock over the course of 53 minutes.  

A growing curiosity began to form among fans concerning the band’s tour schedule, particularly over their concerts in remote places such as the west fjords of Iceland, interior Alaska, and small towns bordering the arctic in northern Canada. In January of 2014, the band made a surprising announcement: they are embarking on a project to record an album for every continent on earth. Furthermore, each “continent” album will be recorded on its respective continent, where the band will relocate for the recording process. This is a historic undertaking, as no band has ever attempted or accomplished this feat.  

After a successful fundraising effort, The Anatomy of Frank are in the midst of finishing their upcoming album for North America. By the end of 2015, the band will have released the album, toured Europe twice, and played shows across their homeland.

About Post Sixty Five: Charlottesville-based band Post Sixty Five often finds itself resonating in a space previously unoccupied in the local music scene. Born from the mind of songwriter and frontman Hicham Benhallam, the five-piece indie rock outfit has been described as both moody and romantic, feverishly tugging at the heartstrings of its listeners with fragile guitar lines while driven by a thunderous rhythm section. Formed in October of 2013, Post Sixty Five brings Benhallam's devastating images to life with dizzy, delicate melodies and disarmingly earnest performances that weigh heavy on the heart.
