About

Fang Island

Fang Island is an American indie rock band formed in Providence, Rhode Island, and based in Brooklyn, New York. The group consists of guitarists Jason Bartell, Chris Georges and Nicholas Andrew Sadler, bassist Michael Jacober, and drummer Marc St. Sauveur. Their self-titled debut album on Sargent House was released in February 2010.Fang Island began in 2005 as an art project with original members, Philip Curcuru, Chris Georges, and Pete Watts, while attending Rhode Island School of Design. They were later joined by Bartell, Sauveur, Jacober, and guitarist Nick Sadler, who had played in another Providence-based band, Daughters.The band got its name from an article in The Onion. Guitarist Jason Bartell recalled, "I think it was just a funny blip about Donald Rumsfeld having a secret hideaway, and it was on Fang Island. We like how it was sort of this, like, fictional space that we imagined our music was played on". The band describes their sound as "everyone high-fiving everyone" and their goal, according to Bartell, is to "make music for people who like music".
