The Transference is an indie rock/power pop band from Chicago, created by singer/songwriter and pianist Laura Hollingsworth (Thistle Eater, Burn the Barn, The Moon and Her Mother, Richard Bandini, Silver Age).
The band’s forceful sound leaves nothing on the table, solidifying around lush harmonies from Andrea Santiago and lead guitarist Justin Wheeler (Modern Daybreak). Laura’s evocative lyrics and direct style layered over pop rock rhythms from drummer Alex Karan (6 Kitty, Richard Bandini) and MJ Johnson’s driving Bass. Producer/multi-instrumentalist Mike Przygoda (The Przmatics) builds texture and magic moments playing everything from vibraphone and harmonium to pedal steel.
Released in March 2024, the band’s debut EP was at Electrical Audio in Chicago, and is mixed/mastered by Laura’s longtime friend and former bandmate Aaron Wallace (The Moon and Her Mother, Thistle Eater).
