Down Time is an LA based indie rock band that has created a diverse body of material ranging from low key bedroom ballads to dense psychedelic grooves. at the core are timeless rock songs guided by the imaginative and soul baring lyrics of front woman, Alyssa Maunders. The songs are close and intimate while also producing thorns. They capture the complexities of the human spirit, the best and worst of our kind.

As the snow fell on the Rockies and an angry mob of vigilante rioters stormed the capital in Washington DC, Down Time recorded a group of songs to tape that would later become Spirit. From start to finish it was written, performed and produced by the band in a small room with blankets stapled to the walls.

Some songs capture the flame of loss while others hold the solitude of a quiet meadow. That is the beauty of Maunders’ lyrics; they are somehow specific and poetically adaptable at the same time, creating an effect that is deeply relatable, all with a vocal delivery akin to Adrianne Lenker. The vocals float on top of solid grooves provided by the band’s secret weapon, David B. Weaver (drums/bass) and melodic flourishes from Justin Camilli (guitar/keys) which take it to another sonic plane. In an age where rehearsal space is prohibitively expensive and laptop-pop reigns supreme, Down Time is succeeding at keeping the band together.
