MK Naomi is a Boston-based emo pop hallucination. Named for the covert CIA bioweapons program that ran from the 1950s-'70s, the quartet's effervescent riffs and '90s-washed hooks glow in the dark. Simply, the band says they're FFO the Ten Things I Hate About You soundtrack.
MK Naomi’s spirited debut EP, Dream Hiss, pierces through the haze of grief like a sharp knife through fog. Written in the wake of a multi-year stretch marked by loss, unrest, and heartbreak, the quartet of songs linger in the liminal space between collapse and regeneration, where healing isn’t linear and clarity comes in flickers.
MK Naomi is the sound of carefully-considered second chances, brought to vivid life and pulled from the corners of a warm sonic cornucopia of '80s/'90s American indie rock and the modern emo-influenced DIY scene.
Rising from the ashes of two promising Boston acts cut tragically short before their time– mathy emo-rockers Birdwatching and shreddy Jawbreaker acolytes Elephants – MK Naomi carries on the city’s rich tradition of artistically assertive, women-led rock bands like The Breeders, Throwing Muses, and Salem 66, injected with the sonic sensibility of contemporaries like Remember Sports, Tigers Jaw, and Soccer Mommy.
The band is powered by the twin songwriting attack and throaty push-pull vocal stylings of longtime friends and scene comrades Andrea Neuenfeldt (bass/vocals, and also of Unseemlier) and Lauren Garant (guitar/vocals, also of Daphne Blue Underworld) in service of powerful, moody anthems that are the perfect soundtrack for gloomy dreamers trying to navigate the daily trials of modern life – without or without SSRIs.
The band’s approach to the time-tested and beloved soft verses/LOUD CHORUSES dynamic is anchored by the muscular drumming of Ally Bull (Radio Compass, Green Piece), and steady rhythm guitar stylings of Tom Ciesluk (No Trigger, Save Ends).
