Ume (pronounced ooo-may) is an Austin trio with an explosive yet sweet aesthetic that seems to be catching folks off guard - in a very good way.
Their sound has been described as:
"pop hooks and sweet female vocals with crazy heavy riffing" (Chromewaves)
"poppy and surprisingly heavy... powerful and charming" (Brooklyn Vegan)
"beautiful, brutal... and completely unpretentious" (Austin Sound)
Ume are: Lauren on vocals/guitar/keys, Rachel on drums and Eric on bass. And of course, as previously stated, they are from Austin Texas. Seems like a trend today.
