Nestled in the Aburrá Valley of the Andes Mountains in Colombia lies Medellín, city of eternal spring. Named after the birthplace of band leader Jenn Taranto (vocals/guitar/keyboard), Seattle’s Medejin creates lush, ethereal dreamwave. Featuring Rebecca Gutterman (guitar), Ben Dorcy (bass) and Matthew Cooke (backing vocals/drums), their sound is euphoric with a disarming intimacy.
Exploring themes of love, loss, self-doubt and motherhood, Medejin's highly anticipated debut LP "The Garden” (Icy Cold Records / Den Tapes) is heavy and fragile all at once, wistful yet joyous. Floating between dreampop, post-rock and indie, the album has quickly become a favorite of famed radio station KEXP, hitting #5 on the station's Top 10 the week of its release, #58 on its Top 90.3 albums of 2023, and landing in several DJs' Top 10 releases of the year. The Seattle Times also named “The Garden” among the best albums of 2023. Medejin have performed live in-studio on KEXP's "Audioasis" with Eva Walker and were included in the lineup for Seattle's Belltown Bloom with artists such as L7, Mannequin Pussy and Skating Polly. They were also invited to perform at Capitol Hill Block Party and have collaborated with the likes of <a href="spotify:artist:0MT8Af4BlhE02l91O6cfyQ" data-name="EMA">EMA</a> and @<a href="spotify:artist:1imvqq6WxaQyNfPENqyC2K" data-name="Tomo Nakayama">Tomo Nakayama</a>.
