Exploratory indie rockers Pattern Is Movement were formed in Philadelphia by multi-instrumentalists Andrew Thiboldeaux and Christopher Ward in 2001. Early output from the band tended toward angular math rock. This heavy approach resulted in 2004's The (Im)possibility of Longing and 2005's Stowaway. In 2008, the group began tending away from cerebral rock and moving in a more stylized direction in line with the layered harmonies and neo-soul influences of Dirty Projectors or Grizzly Bear. The band embarked on a series of tours, supporting acts as diverse as the Roots and St. Vincent. Their self-titled fourth album took years of recording and editing to complete, seeing the light of day in the spring of 2014. ~ Fred Thomas
