Biography

The Pretty Flowers are a four-piece indie rock band from Los Angeles composed of Noah Green (vocals/guitar), Jake Gideon (guitar/vocals), Sam Tiger (bass/vocals) and Sean Johnson (drums). Their music has been described as hooky, heartfelt and literate. Their influences span more than a few decades of loud guitar indie and college rock, including: Guided By Voices, Echo & the Bunnymen , The Teardrop Explodes, Superchunk, Creeper Lagoon and The Lemonheads. The Big Takeover magazine said of The Pretty Flowers debut album, Why Trains Crash, “These Los Angeles hard power-poppers...play '90s style indie-rock that harkens back to later The Replacements early Weezer, a little Sloan and quite a bit of Wilco. They have the chops to write great songs.” The blog I Buy Way Too Many Records lauded it as “a shoe-in for (2018) album of the year,“ and punk zine Razorcake called it “lyrical, like a toned-down The Weakerthans…wistful, but not weak and catchy but not cute.” Since the release of Why Trains Crash, the band has toured the west coast several times and released a covers album and numerous singles. Their songs have been featured on the TV shows Shameless, Nancy Drew, The Resort, and Resident Alien. 2023 has found the band on a west coast tour with The Roxies from Germany. On July 14th they will release their sophomore album, A Company Sleeve on Double Helix Records. The album was produced by the band’s own Jake Gideon, engineered by Adam Lasus and mastered by Matthew Barnhart.
