It's been a meteoric rise for Seattle duo ODESZA. With the release of their sophomore album, In Return, on Counter Records (a Ninja Tune imprint), producers Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight have become overnight sensations, selling out shows around the world, including two nights at The Showbox.
KEXP is proud to present the video premiere of this "In Return: Home" documentary of the band.

For a band who reportedly took their name from a sunken ship, we predict continued smooth sailing for ODESZA.
Check out the documentary "In Return: Home" below, and watch their Audioasis session from last year on the KEXP Blog.

When Lost Lander's Matt Sheehy sings, "It feels like we've been walking on wire," we can relate. It's a tightrope act with the band Lost Lander, a tension created by catchy loops, and layered lyrics, either of which are all too easy to get lost in. "Hold onto that thread," Sheehy advises, and he's …
