“Precision chaos from Providence’s underground.”

THERE crafts immersive sound environments where abrasive textures collide with unpredictable dynamics, and traditional song structures are shattered and reassembled. Balancing raw power with meticulous sonic deconstruction, THEY invite listeners into a realm where melody fragments, rhythm distorts, and the unexpected is the only constant.

Their performances are as visceral as they are captivating—equal parts confrontation and catharsis—cementing their place within Providence’s storied experimental music scene.

When you bring together a group of deeply experienced and boundary-pushing musicians, the result is rarely predictable—but almost always compelling. In the case of THERE, it’s something far more volatile: a total sonic mutation.

Comprised of Steve Mattos, Pat Crump, Josh Kemp, and Brent Frattini, the band draws from a lineage of influential underground acts including Arab on Radar, Athletic Automaton, Doomsday Student, Chinese Stars, Mahi Mahi, The Cancer Conspiracy, and Daughters.

What emerges from this convergence is a psychedelic sonic stew—fractured yet intentional, chaotic yet controlled. Their music feels less like composition and more like transformation: an exploded blender of past experiences reassembled into something entirely new.

Debut full length officially releases 1/30/2026. 

Vinyl orders are available now through Bandcamp.
