Chapman indie band makes waves

Student indie music is thriving at Chapman and a new group is trying their best to break into the scene. “Transistor Ribcage” consists of lead vocalist/ guitarist/keyboardist/recording engineer Brandon Vuernick, Drummer Zeke “Cockring” Anderson and Kyle, who knows how to play the bass. The band identifies its musical stylings as experimental indie-rock, incorporating elements of psychedelic trap and ambient dream-pop. “If I had to describe our sound in one word, it would be ‘essence.’” says Brandon.

T-Cage (a self-imposed nickname) recently released an EP called “Sorry, I’m Not A Woman.” — no word yet on how many listens it has gathered because Spotify does not show a specific number when it is less than a thousand. The EP is four songs, all wildly different in subject matter with topics ranging from songs about Brandon’s ex to songs about Zeke’s ex. You can catch T-Cage playing in the piazza every Wednesday afternoon from 1pm until whenever P-Safe realizes they are there and makes them leave.
