The band formed during the dark days of 2020 and were quickly signed by Heavy Psych Sounds, who released Ultra in the fall of 2021 and established the band’s penchant for delivering crushing doom riffs and haunting vocals accentuated by bursts of psychedelic flair and swampy Americana swagger. And while the chemistry of long-time friends Garrett Zanol (guitar/vocals), Ian Nelson (bass) and Chase Howard (drums) was apparent upon listening to their debut, their bond was further strengthened by relentlessly touring the western United States and completing a month-long tour of Europe. The trio almost immediately began looking forward, road-testing and crystalizing the songs that would comprise their follow-up, which found the band reuniting with Ultra producer Dawson Scholz. The result is Umbra: a singular statement that is more focused and cohesive than its predecessor, while managing to capture the immersive, free-flowing experience of their live show. Umbra is set to release on October 6 via Heavy Psych Sounds Records.

The five-piece from the Pacific Northwest have been to hell and back, suffering losses both personal and public. Persevering through the death of Jesse's Father, a mentor and confidant for the band, AIB has set out to seek the lost, the broken, and the hurting. The group refocused their efforts, in order to pursue a message of hope, after losing many friends to depression, substance abuse, and consequently, suicide. These trials paved the way for AIB to develop their mission statement: "to inspire hope in those that have none." The band uses their own stories of personal hardship, struggle, and loss, to relate to their fans, in order to achieve this.

“We really want to help hurting people... too many people are depressed and don’t know where to turn. We want our listeners to know that they aren’t alone, and that they can always come to us in times of need.” - Matt Hoos, Vocalist

  • Live From Somewhere’s work is vital to the growth of our music scene and artistic community. What they are building transcends their own ambitions, directly benefiting the artists they feature. Many musicians have gained new audiences, fans, and professional recordings for the first time, thanks to their platform. Creating a brand new and beautiful experience that could not be done by the artists themselves independently.

  • What can I say about Live From Somewhere? We had the pleasure of being on the 6th episode of season 1 of Live From Somewhere. Total pros. They look for pristine locations , try to out do themselves with every shoot. It is remarkable that they are able to do something different from each setting.

EVERGREEN STATE OF CONSCIOUS

October of 2017 was our first year when our journey began when Nik created the first collection of up-cycled crystal jewelry from local thrift stores. We both were amazed at the results of his creativity, adding crystals to once used pieces and giving them new life was an amazing start to the ground floor of building our business.

This process has evolved now into our own lines of crystal jewelry, artwork and clothing. 

Nik is the mastermind behind the curtains and Riley is the sales lady you will see at events and stopping by to check on our displays at many of our local stores that carry our products. Each of us have our passions that we together have combined to make our business with our love for nature and our beautiful elements. 

Each of our items we create with the intention to spread love and light into our community. All of our designs carry a deeper meaning whether it be the crystal properties or the patterns we use on our art and clothing, each have their own meaning. 

Our mission since the first day we started is to create products to Inspire, Elevate and Shift our collective consciousness of our community. 

We welcome you with open hearts and minds to our business and to our way of life.

With Love,

Nik & Riley
