News

All waves in all ways

Tune your (radio) knobs: We are on "The Next Big Thing" on KALX-FM 90. 7 & kalx.berkeley.edu, Monday Sept 8: 6-7pm PT.

Some nice blog rumblings: "They're snappy, energetic, and just plain playful" Mainstream Isn't So Bad "What do graphic designers do in their spare time? If you said make catchy pop music, you’d be correct." Howard Who "I was very pleased when their song "Teleprompt" was really catchy and had an interesting story" Appetite For Distraction "My First Earthquakes non solo scrivono ottime email di presentazione, con buona dose di autoironia e pomposità" Brugo. (you know Italian, right?)

A podcast complete with robo-impressions! The contrast podcast features musicians introducing their own songs. We give good intro if we do say so ourselves...

The latest in socio-networking technology! Bump us on The Sixtyone!

About this serious-looking band >

the band

“This first EP from My First Earthquake, entitled Tremors, is totally fun and infectious. The six tracks are adorned with plenty of synth and hip-shaking bass lines, making for a continuous stream of well-executed, straightforward indie pop.”
- The Deli SF

“With mainstream pop music getting studio-perfected to the point where we’re losing character for production clarity, a band like My First Earthquake possesses vintage charm.”
- SF Weekly
