Richmond, Virginia, psychedelic pop-rock band Avers stopped by WAMU in D.C. to record “Girls With Headaches,” a standout from its 2014 album “Empty Light.” psychedelic in nature with roots in indie rock. It was exciting to say the least. Layer upon layer of these magnificent sounds and instruments melding together to form something original and creative. Well thought out lyrics and vocals that didn’t let them down. Reeling from what my ears had just experienced I sat around a warm bonfire to talk to the innovators of this new sound.
The band name is Avers and it is a mix of some talent you have probably already been impressed by in the local music scene. Alexandra Spalding and Adrian Olsen of HyperColor, Tyler Williams of The Head and The Heart, JL Hodges of Farm Vegas, James Mason of Mason Brothers, and Charlie Glenn of The Trillions.
