The Invisible Cities

ABOUT THE INVISIBLE CITIES
The Invisible Cities is a San Francisco-based band that makes incandescent rough-around- the-edges sometimes-quiet sometimesloud rocknroll pop music with wiry guitars and boy/girl harmonies. Watertown is their first full-length record, born of late-night, halfremembered reflections about half-remembered places.

The band formed through the meetings of strangers and family. Han found Sadie with her craigslist ad that he says poorly described her musical sensibilities (see? strangers and yet family so soon!). And when Tim was looking for a chance to rock out a little in the midst of his jazz activities, he in turn answered their ad. Han’s brother Gary heard what they were up to and started playing shows with them when he was in town, on vacation from his regular life as upright bass player in NYC.

They have been playing in various configurations in the Bay Area for the last couple of years, including performances piNoisePop 8 in 2003 and APAture in 2003 and 2004. They feel lucky to have had help from Matt Yelton (Pixies, Frank Black) when they started recording the album, and from Jon Evans (Tori Amos) for mixing it.
