Part circuit-bending weirdos, part self-deluding pop stars, Fellow Creatures emerged from the remains of the beloved Ugly Purple Sweater in late 2014 and quickly became known as one of Washington, DCʼs most distinctive and compelling live bands. Centered on the deft vocal harmonizing and genre-blurring songwriting of Sam McCormally and Will McKindley-Ward, Fellow Creatures makes an impression with their layered, intricate arrangements and propulsive rhythm section of Rishi Chakrabarty on bass and David Greer on drums.. The band’s eclectic, physical sensibility has earned comparisons with the Talking Heads and Yeasayer. Fellow Creatures debut record, produced with composer Louis Weeks, was released in April 2016.
