Artist Detailed Info: Partition

There are 3 artists/bands named Partition

1. Check out our music at Thebandpartition. Partition are from London. We began in 2001.

We are proud of our influences but struggle to pin our music down to a particular genre. Lo-fi certainly. Most people would call us 'indie' but we see this as more of a description of our approach (running our own record label) than a type of music. We are fed up of hearing about indie, or 'indy'?!, bands signed to major record labels.

Live we are keen to deliver a show that is much more than just our music and our 'unprofessionalism' as enthusiastic amateurs often means we are characterised as a comedy act rather than band. We think this is great. Fortunately the audience are generally laughing with us rather than at us. We like to think of ourselves as old punks as we like a lot of music from the punk and new wave era of the late 70s and early 80s. But we probably sound more folky and/or pop-like than most punk bands. We will download some stuff and then you can decide for yourself.

It appears there is another artist with a similar name but we don't do rap or r'n'b .... just punky stuff!

3. PARTITION originally began in 2015 in Richmond VA when our lead singer/bassist Taylor (pronouns they/them) was 18. After battling with mental health issues and drug addiction Taylor had to leave the band and Richmond to seek mental and drug abuse counselling. During this time most of the songs for Prodigal Gun were written. (The others were written when Taylor was 17 back in Southwest VA). After rehab and a stint in sober living in California Taylor linked up with long time internet friend Evan (PARTITION’s current drummer, pronouns he/him) Where on a whim Taylor spent their whole paycheck on a plane ticket to MN, arriving with no money. After a few months of practicing as a two piece they finally met Seth (guitar, pronouns he/him) at a house show. They began practicing non stop and recorded PARTITION’s first set of recordings Prodigal Demo . The release of these songs in Sept 2018 was the band’s first show in Minneapolis. Since then the trio have played upwards of 60 shows, been on two small tours around the midwest and recorded their debut LP Prodigal Gun set to release January 2020. Taylor will be 2 years sober in February.
