Great Northern is tagged as: indie, indie pop, alternative, indie rock, female vocalists Great Northern is an indie rock group from Los Angeles comprising vocalist/guitarist Solon Bixler (formerly of 30 Seconds to Mars), vocalist/keyboardist Rachel Stolte, bassist Michael Regilio, keyboardist Marissa Micik and drummer Dusty Rocherolle. As of 2007, they are signed with the independent label Eenie Meenie Records, where they have released their debut album, Trading Twilight For Daylight (2007), and their sophomore album, Remind Me Where the Light Is (2009). “It’s like being intimate with total strangers.” That is how Rachel Stolte of Great Northern describes the feeling of performing live and creating a connection with her audience. The sentiment could be duly applied to the band’s latest release, Remind Me Where the Light Is, on which Stolte and co-writer Solon Bixler pour so much of themselves into their highly personal lyrics and wistful melodies.| |On their sophomore album, Bixler and Stolte are not afraid to delve into darkness. Taking that risk helped them find beauty in sadness, the uplifting elements in the devastating. “We took a lot more risks by entering uncomfortable territory that wasn’t touched on the last record,” Bixler says. “We dug deeper into the unpleasant, which helped us to find the beauty.”|...
