ABOUT
Film is an illusion; a string of still images presented just fast enough to confuse your eyes into believing that what you are seeing is “real”. The music of Life In 24 Frames is about capturing the individual moments (frames) that create our human experience (film).
Life In 24 Frames formed in Sacramento, California with one mission - to share the honesty and purity of their musical creations with as many people as possible. Since their inception, the band has fulfilled on their initial mission while opening for acts like Band of Horses, Minus the Bear, Dredg, Cage the Elephant, Royal Blood and Winter Sleep, among others.
Deep and thoughtful lyric and vocal arrangements are layered on top of beautifully crafted, hooky yet complex, musical arrangements. The band is mature, and their sound is as diverse as the audiences who have already embraced the group as an independent artist.
In 2015 the band completed their third full length LP, CTRL+Z, at the renowned Panoramic House in Stinson Beach, CA. As a concept album, each track represents a “month” of a calendar year, describing the death of a past life and the birth of a new one. Each track was designed to represent a scene in a film, a chapter in a book or a month in a life.
In 2023 the band released their fourth full length LP, REDIVIDER. Recorded at the renowned Panoramic House in Stinson Beach, CA, the album, which has some of the most personal and emotional content recorded to date, was heavily influenced by the experience of the Stinson Sessions in which it was created. Like CTRL+Z, this is also a concept album. Redivider is a palindrome: It tells the story of a silent war of opposing self-perspectives; a struggle between an individual’s inner critic and hopeful optimist. Side A of the record tells the story from one perspective, while side B is from the other; it is up to the listener to decide which perspective - critical or hopeful - is represented on either side of the record.
Like a film, Life In 24 Frames offers a way for listeners to divert from their reality and provides the opportunity to paint your picture on top of a musical background; personal brushstrokes on a shared canvas. Life In 24 Frames gives you the chance to write your own story while sharing in theirs. Their records are meant to be experienced as albums, and the songs have meaningful depth that reveal new life upon each listen.
