Our StoryLazy Waters formed in Lawrence, Kansas during the fall of 2016, when old friends and former bandmates Bryan Anderson (bass/vocals) and Tim Brandsted (guitar/vocals) got together to flesh out some songs. Following the initial practice sessions as an acoustic duo, they decided their songs would benefit from some added instrumentation. Guitarist Matt Falkenstien and drummer Anthony Birchfield (both formerly of Lawrence stalwarts The Afterhours) signed on, and Lazy Waters became a thing.
After a few meetings in Tim’s basement, the group began to develop their uniquely melodic, harmony-heavy roots rock sound, and would go on to perform at some of the area’s most popular venues, including The Replay Lounge, The Bottleneck, The Eighth Street Taproom, Frank’s North Star Tavern, and The Jackpot Music Hall. Their first EP, the cryptically titled Four Songs, was released in the spring of 2017. Gone In All Directions, the group’s first full-length album, was released in October 2018. |
