Description:
Practicing as a band 12 to 15 hours a week and "writing like crazy," they have rapidly ascended over the past year in the Spokane local music scene and are riding a wave of hard work and creativity.
One cannot describe the sound of Seaweed Jack without immediate reference to Modest Mouse. Doolittle's vocal style seems particularly indebted to Isaac Brock, in his rapid switching between singing and screaming and his fast-paced, erratic delivery.
Seaweed Jack's music is propelled by a heavy emphasis on bass and drums, with Built to Spill-style guitar-clash filling out the sound. As they write and play new material, the band members each bring different musical perspectives that they work to fuse into something unique. The band speaks of the inherent pressure for them to find a sound that is focused yet original and broad. To this end, Doolittle has been working to incorporate his own hip-hop and freestyle elements, and the band has been integrating violin parts with their traditional rock quartet.
