Episode 111: My Friends Tiny Moving Parts

All My Friends Are in Bar Bands

Tiny Moving Parts have been keeping it all in the family since well before they formed - they're made up of two brothers and a cousin, after all. Coming out of a sleepy town in Minnesota, the band has always dared to be different, mixing their love of emo and pop-punk with a dizzying, mathy approach to instrumentation. It's seen them quickly outgrow the basements they once thrived in, eventually ascending to international acclaim and sold-out tours everywhere they travel. They take none of it for granted, of course - to them, they're still the blink-loving kids just playing for fun that they were when they first started jamming in one another's garages. Ahead of a packed Manning Bar show with Luca Brasi, vocalist/guitarist Dylan Matthiesen and drummer Bill Chevalier share stories of everything from idolising Travis Barker to Fargo tourist attractions as they tell the TMP story as they know it.

Tiny Moving Parts' latest album, Swell, is out now.
