All their lives, Dana and Alden McWayne knew they wanted to be in a band together. After cutting their teeth at jazz jams around their hometown of Eugene, Oregon, they formed a duo simply bearing their first names and cut an EP titled Brothers in 2021. Over 2023’s Quiet Music For Young People and 2024’s Coyote, You’re My Star, Dana and Alden quickly established an eclectic, genre-agnostic sound drawn from their omnivorous musical upbringing — built on Dana’s saxophone and Alden’s drums, rooted in jazz, but pulling strains from indie, pop, rap, funk, pretty much everything.
Speedo — their third album, and first for Concord Jazz — is the culmination of whirlwind years, fueled in equal parts by grassroots word-of-mouth and online fervor on TikTok. The album was recorded in a furious, inspired burst during an over-caffeinated visit to Lisbon, holed up with producer Charif Megarbane. Across Speedo, Dana and Alden’s already-expansive palette continues to mutate, making room for fried psychedelia and synth-indie and euphoric disco, with a talented cadre of musicians cohering as their touring band: Andrew Mitchell (bass), Ebba Dankel (vocals, keys), Eli Torgersen (vocals, guitar), and Salim Charvet (sax, synths).
Though often playful, Speedo also finds Dana and Alden maturing as they reach their mid-twenties. Throughout, Speedo forever surprises and transforms, presenting an array of life experience and constantly making you see it from a new angle.
