Sometimes you have to travel all the way to the other coast to find what you’re looking for, and that’s what guitarist Vincent Frederick and bassist Jenny Pirch, two Detroit-to-LA transplants, realized when they bonded over their love for two-part harmonies sung by the Everly Brothers. Although Fredericks already had success using the Singles as a moniker for a power-pop band back in Detroit, the band was reborn when the pop melded with Pirch’s garage rock past (her resume includes the Gore Gore Girls and the Cramps). Add in a little Buddy Holly flavor and drummer Nicky Veltman, and the Singles are now a power-pop rock band with tunes like stomping “(She’s Got) A Heart of Stone” and wistful ballads such as ‘I’m Not Waiting Anymore.” The Singles are currently working on a full-length. For now, file next to Tashaki Miyaki.
