Standish&Co. is a 10-piece Seattle-based rock band that formed in 2024. A collective of different band leaders from across genres and styles, they assemble as the “Company” to back singer-songwriter Standish. Known for a distinct brand of Americana-infused indie rock—described by some as “Bruce Springsteen covering Brandi Carlile backed by Mumford & Sons”—Standish&Co. stands strongly at the crossroads of singer-songwriter and ensemble traditions. After recording their debut single, "New Tattoo," at London Bridge Studios, the band is now celebrating the release of their sophomore EP, the four-track Crossfire Confessions, recorded at Robert Lang Studios.
The EP is a dynamic journey anchored by four distinct pillar songs that include: a high-energy, in-your-face love song; a Motown-inspired, spiteful anthem driven by a groovy bassline; a somber acoustic song showcasing a more vulnerable side; and a roll-down-your-windows cruise song featuring a killer horn instrumental.
