The Districts are an American indie rock band hailing from Lititz, Pennsylvania. Formed in 2009, they have gained a reputation for their unique sound and captivating live performances. Drawing inspiration from a variety of genres, *The Districts* have crafted a distinctive style that sets them apart from their peers.

With influences ranging from alternative rock to folk and blues, *The Districts* create music that is both introspective and energetic. Their raw lyrics and powerful vocals resonate with listeners, while their dynamic instrumentals showcase their musical prowess. They have been compared to artists such as Atta Boy, Naked Giants, Born Ruffians, and Twin Peaks.

Having toured extensively across the United States and beyond, *The Districts* have built a dedicated fan base who eagerly anticipate each new release. Their discography includes critically acclaimed albums such as "A Flourish and a Spoil" and "Popular Manipulations." With each album, they continue to push boundaries and evolve as artists.

Lancaster County, Pennsylvania's the Districts serve up an impressive album that straddles the line between imaginative pop and brisk blues-inflected folk. The Districts are electric and vibrant, embellished with a sophisticated kind of effortlessness. The soulful yet country-tinged drawls of singer and frontman Rob Grote ooze out of each track, bringing to mind the charisma of Janis Joplin, except in male form. Couple that voice with The Band-esque instrumentation, and you've got something Levon Helm would have been proud of. Anyone who thought the band of SXSW hyped teens weren't quite worthy of the fuss might want to think again.LP+ - Purple Vinyl - Limited to 300 Copies. (Sold Out)LP - Black Vinyl.
