BUILT TO SPILL

 More from this Band



Since the band's inception in 1992, Built to Spill founder Doug Martsch
intended his beloved band to be a collaborative project, an ever-evolving
group of musicians making music and playing live together. "I wanted to
switch the lineup for many reasons. Each time we finish a record I want the
next one to sound totally different. It's fun to play with people who bring in
new styles and ideas," says Martsch. "And it's nice to be in a band with
people who aren't sick of me yet." Following several albums and EPs on
Pacific Northwest independent labels, including the indie-rock classic,
There's Nothing Wrong With Love, released on Sub Pop offshoot Up Records
in 1994, Martsch signed with Warner Brothers from 1995 to 2016. He and
his rotating cast of cohorts recorded six more great albums during that time
- Perfect From Now On, Keep It Like a Secret, Ancient Melodies of the
Future, You In Reverse, Untethered Moon, There Is No Enemy. There was
also a live album, and a solo record, Now You Know. While the band's
impeccable recorded catalog is the entry point, Built to Spill live is an

teenager. And I think I'm the first fifty year-old they've ever signed." (The
rumors are true, we love quinquagenarians_) When the Wind Forgets Your
Name continues expanding the Built to Spill universe in new and exciting
ways. In 2018 Martsch's good fortune and keen intuition brought him
together with Brazilian lo-fi punk artist and producer Le Almeida, and his
long-time collaborator, Joao Casaes, both of the psychedelic jazz rock band,
Orua. Martsch fell in love with their music the moment he heard it. So when
he needed a new band for shows in Brazil, he asked them, and the
partnership went so well Martsch, Almeida, and Casaes continued playing
together throughout 2019, touring the US and Europe and ultimately
recording the bass and drum tracks for When the Wind Forgets Your Name
at Doug's rehearsal space in Boise. After Martsch tracked guitars and
