Cheekface is an indie rock trio, more precisely a talk-singing band, from Los Angeles. The story starts in 2017. Things were getting pretty crappy on Earth. Indie rock lifers Greg and Mandy got together to write out the anxiety, despair, and the bleak humor of it all. They sent the demos to Echo and, voila, a band. It wasn’t a project that started with much ambition: the idea was to drop a record on Bandcamp and call it a day. But in 2018, the band’s second single “Dry Heat/Nice Town,” a playful pub rock tune about leftist protest culture, started to snowball online. A word-of-mouth cult started to form, and it intensified with Cheekface’s community-minded singalong shows. Fans dubbed themselves “Cheek Freaks.”
Six albums and several viral moments later, they’re touring to support their most recent release, Podium.
