The Framers and Carmela with The Hills

The Framers and Carmela with The Hills on Saturday, November 1 at The Wayfarer in Costa Mesa, CA!

THE FRAMERS ARE AN ALT. INDIE ROCK GROUP BASED OUT OF SANTA BARBARA, CA. MEMBERS INCLUDE JESSE PRIOR (VOCALS), FRANKY SANSONE (RHYTHM GUITAR), OLIVER CHAVEZ (LEAD GUITAR), ALLISON CORWIN (BASS), AND JAKE MORENC (DRUMS). THE FRAMERS’ SIGNATURE SOUND IS DERIVED FROM GENRES OF INDIE ROCK, EARLY 2000’S GARAGE ROCK, AND RIOT GRRRL. TOGETHER, THEY FORM A UNIQUE MUSICAL STYLE THAT IS PUNCHY, NOSTALGIC, AND RICH IN STORYTELLING.

SINCE THEIR FORMATION IN 2020, THE BAND HAS PLAYED AT COUNTLESS ESTABLISHED VENUES AND EVENTS THROUGHOUT SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND THE CENTRAL COAST. THEY HAVE PLAYED ALONG SIDE BANDS SUCH AS PEACH PIT, STRFKR, THUNDER CAT AT FESTIVALS SHABANG AND FIELDS OF FUNK. THEIR MOST SUCCESSFUL MATERIAL INCLUDES THEIR FIRST RELEASE, “ANGEL” AND THEIR HIT SINGLES, “WENDY,” “WONDER WHY,” AND “CHEATER” (SUENO STUDIOS). THEIR LATEST ALBUM, “I’M FEELING FINE,” IS AVAILABLE ON ALL STREAMING PLATFORMS AND HAS HAD SEVERAL PLAYS ACROSS A PROMINENT ALT-ROCK RADIO STATIONS WITH OUTREACH IN VENTURA COUNTY, SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, AND SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY.

Hailing from Los Angeles, Carmela produces a colloquial and vulnerable brand of indie rock—balancing rock, soul, pop punk, and folk with a pop sensibility. She creates “fiercely cathartic music that demands to be heard live” (Grimy Goods). Her sophomore album, Queen of the Suburbs, is set to release in late summer 2025.
