About this user

The Locals® are an alt-rock trio from Chicago who are steadily winning fans and devotees with their CD "Big Picture". Produced by Steven Gillis (Filter), "Big Picture" delivers anything from guitar heavy sumptuous alt-pop gems like "Tidal Wave" to moody, alt- rock tunes in "Together Alone".
Fronted by singer and songwriter Yvonne Doll the Locals are a staple of the Chicago music scene. "Big Picture" is the Locals' fourth studio effort and their first full length CD in almost 6 years. Their style has covered the range from singer/songwriter to borderline jam band. But while this CD contains subtle winks at the past, "Big Picture" is unapologetically guitar heavy alt-pop. Think The Breeders meet The Pixies meet the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Doll's distinct and powerful vocals cut through the band. It is by far the first thing you'll notice. It's the perfect compliment to the rhythm section of Nunes and Snedeker who drive The Locals' sound with precision and power.
