Small Black is an American indie electronic band formed in Brooklyn, New York. Known for their dreamy and atmospheric sound, they have been creating music since 2009. With influences ranging from shoegaze to synth-pop, Small Black has developed a unique style that captivates listeners.
The band consists of Josh Kolenik on vocals and keyboards, Ryan Heyner on guitar and keyboards, Juan Pieczanski on bass guitar and drums, and Jeff Curtin on drums. Their debut album "New Chain" was released in 2010 to critical acclaim.
Since then, Small Black has continued to release albums and EPs that showcase their evolving sound. Their music often explores themes of nostalgia, love, and the passage of time. With their catchy melodies and introspective lyrics, Small Black has gained a dedicated fan base around the world.

'new chain' is the debut longplayer from new york's small black. richly coloured and thickly layered, it is an absorbing, eclectic and obsessive body of work. the brooklyn group have succeeded in melting together locked and popped drum-shudder, gauzy spirographic synths and subtly contagious, half-remembered melody into ebullient bursts of evocative, subliminal and thoroughly modern pop. the songs are equally informed by the rhythmic bounce and stylistic swagger of more left-leaning contemporary radio rap and r'n'b as it is the submerged kaleidoscopic swirl of the early 4ad dream factory. mixed by nicolas vernhes (animal collective, dirty projectors) at his rare book room studio, ny.
