VIDEO: The Genius File featured on This Man is Not My Father

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

The Genius File is featured on the newest episode of This Man Is Not My Father (a local music video blog).  We are big fans of The Genius File and, coincidentally, we will be sitting down with them this weekend to record another part of our “A Six Pack With…” Series.  Check’em out…

PART I

PART II

The Genius File is…

Matt Taylor- vocals, keyboards, guitar
Ryan Rollins – vocals, guitars, excellence
Donovan Lauderback- bass, guitar
Martin Larsen- drums

A word from Robert Schneider of The Apples in Stereo and Co-Founder of the Elephant 6 Recording Company w/ Jeff Mangum…

“Laser-guided indie rock from Matt Taylor (Blastic Pubble) and co-conspirator Ryan Rollins. The Genius File takes off from the maximum psychedelia of Blastic Pubble, into a vector-graphic landscape of jagged pop hooks. An awesome debut from these mid-fi masterminds.” -Robert Schneider (The Apples in stereo)
