The Pharmacy, Seattle, WA
Scott Yoder and Brendhan Bowers made plenty of noisy racket in the local garages and teen centers growing up on Vashon Island. They moved across the Puget Sound to Seattle and booked their first tour as The Pharmacy in 2003 and have kept the show pretty much on the road ever since. In 2006 the original bass/synth player left and classically trained pianist and fellow Vashon kid Stefan Rubicz joined on piano. Since then they’ve transformed from the synth-heavy overdrive of their 2005 debut album B.F.F. through the drizzly sunshine of the Overcast Summer 7” at last landing on the off-kilter psychedelic pop of Choose Yr Own Adventure. Replete with epic instrumentation - viola, violin, cello, harpsichord and horns all make an appearance - Choose Yr Own Adventure has been years in the making, re-vamped re-recorded and re-written over time.
They have played Bumbershoot, the Capitol Hill Block Party, every club in town and every basement in the country. They have played with the Moldy Peaches and toured with Kimya Dawson (as her opening and backing band), Jeffrey Lewis, Matt & Kim and Japanther. If they could live on tour then they would.
A Euro-only split 7” with Japanther (recorded while they were on tour together) is being mixed right now.
