Биография

Led by multidisciplinary Uchinanchu American artist Maya Stoner, Floating Room has featured a revolving cast of musicians. 'Shima' was recorded in a single day at The Magic Closet in Stayton OR, and was produced by Mo Troper, who also played on every track. Live, Stoner is joined by Mo Troper, Brenden Ramirez, and Keegan Bradford. "It’s been five years since Portland’s Floating Room emerged with their spectacular and murky debut record, Sunless, in 2016. With each new release Maya Stoner, the songwriting force behind the project has not so much refined her sound but continued to build off what she’s last done and expanded her sound with 2018’s excellent, slow-burning False Baptism LP and 2020’s dreamy Tired and True EP. While ostensibly Floating Room has always been a “rock band,” the project is leaning into their distorted whims with the upcoming Shima EP, out November 12 on Famous Class Records." -KEXP "Portland’s Floating Room have a knack for making great music that shifts priorities between release. They nailed the dreamy shoegaze of False Baptism back in 2018 and last year’s Tired and True was a masterpiece of heartfelt noise pop, with an emphasis on the pop. The five tracks were each a testament to the strength of Maya Stoner’s songwriting, weaving between enormous hooks and intelligent structures. While we eagerly await a new full length from the band, today they’ve announced Shima (...) With this one, Floating Room are getting heavier." - Post-Trash
