Biography

The Spins are an Indie Alternative rock band from Northern NJ. Founded in August of 2016 by Nick Coombs (vocals/rhythm guitar), Freddy Smith (drums), and Luke Talmadge (bass), the band quickly found their full sound and line up with the addition of Jimmy Barr (lead guitar) shortly after. They began building a large local fan base right away with the release of several Soundcloud demos, followed by the release of their debut EP, “Tank’d”. This was supported by their first tour, covering a large portion of the Northern East coast. Their latest release, “4 Day Stay”, was put out after a long period of live performances focused on building their following since the release of “Tank’d”. The band has played heavily around the East Coast in NYC, Philadelphia, NJ, New Hampshire, Boston, Delaware, and more. After original founding member Luke Talmadge moved to Virginia in November 2018, Jordan Stackhouse briefly filled the role until the band added Phil Dunphy as their new permanent member. They immediately hit the road with Phil in the summer of 2019 in support of "4 Day Stay" on a 2 week tour of the East Coast from Vermont down to Georgia. During this tour, they began the writing process for their debut LP. Over the course of the next year the band began an intensive writing process to create their first official LP. They recently tracked the record at Sound Acres Studios with Gary Cioni. Their highly anticipated debut LP is expected to be released sometime in early 2021.
