Walking Relic
Noble
Walking Relic is a pop/rock band from Norman, Oklahoma. Their style lies somewhere between Florence and The Machine and The Killers. Being female fronted, they have put their mark on the local scene playing places such as: The Hi-Lo Club, 51st Street Speakeasy, Belle Isle, The 89th Street Collective, Bricktown! live, The Oklahoma State Fair, Enerje Event Center and The Oklahoma Arts Festival.
In the summer of 2015, the group recorded a song for the award winning movie "Electric Nostalgia," which released the next year at DeadCenter Film Festival.
In a way the band is a sort of "family band" consisting of brothers- in- law Chris Schat and Derek Mehl and Chris' wife Jessie Allison Schat. It is easy to see, then, how Walking Relic has stayed together all these years.The project started originally just as recording sessions for talent competitions and soon bloomed into a full on creative force.
The band has also been on a month long tour consisting of the east coast and the mid west, playing Georgia and Florida then taking an immediate turn to Arizona. The band has also had the chance to play in Nashville for record executives. In 2014 our single "Every Little Thing" was being played on 16 radio stations in the UK and had the opportunity to have radio interviews with Spark FM (UK), Insanity Radio (UK), Mersey Radio (UK), and Nevis Radio (UK).
Walking Relic is influenced by many artists such as: The Beatles, The Killers, M83, Vampire Weekend, Arcade Fire, Tegan and Sara, Enya, Florence and The Machine, Switchfoot, Snow Patrol, The National, Sigur Ros, and composers Murray Gold, Hans Zimmerman, and Olafur Arnalds, along with many many other great and talented artists.
What sets Walking Relic apart from other bands is their knack to keep the music going regardless of circumstances, as well as staying true to their eclectic style of rock. The other difference between Walking Relic and other bands is their unwavering commitment to make an album more than just a collection of songs, but an immensely detailed and thought-provoking story that allows listeners and readers (the album comes complete with a first person "recount" of the journey the protagonists take in the story) to experience the whole of the album, and make intimate observations about their place in the human condition and what part they play.
