Ryan James Kemble has seen Backyards 1 time.

With comparisons to Arcade Fire, Radiohead, The National, and Idlewild, the Backyards sound is eclectic and multifaceted. They blend shimmering violin, guitars, and keyboards over a driving, pounding rhythm section with dual lead vocalists. Backyards songs are known for their atmosphere and ability to be both dark and light, powerful and optimistic.
