88/89 was formed out of two guys - Jack (born in ‘88) and Michael (born in ‘89) - and their combined inescapable urge to create. The team writes, creates, records, and produces all of their own material from a small house in West London. Their music carves out a space between synth-pop and dream rock, creating a sonic landscape with no boundaries.
The duo met when they both were trying to start again creatively – Jack, after leaving Sissy and the Blisters, and Michael, after leaving his acting career behind. The two of them grew closer after Jack played some of his music to Michael in a car, from there they became aware of their complementary tastes and realized the yin and yang this would bring to their music. While their unique sound is redolent of bands like MGMT, Vampire Weekend, Tame Impala, The Cure, and The Temper Trap, 88/89 also pulls influence from artists such as Lou Reed, Simply Red, Primal Scream
and even Backstreet Boys.
