Lydia

Harmony is Lydia's thing. They hail from Gilbert, Arizona and boast both male and female vocalists. This six-piece indie band knows who they are musically, and with each track they build upon their style. Vocalists Leighton Antelman and Mindy White's voices mesh perfectly on the band's record "Illuminate". The band has truly reached new heights on this release, utilizing keys, guitar, and voices in what may be the best dual-vocalled indie band to date. Leighton occasionally resembles a British-sounding Craig Owens (Chiodos/Isles & Glaciers) and Mindy a more high-ranged Hayley Williams (Paramore). The feel of this group's music is somewhat indescribable. It's calming yet thought provoking, inspiring yet down. Personally, I believe that Lydia is a band to not analyze, but simply enjoy.
