HOLIDAY SALE AT THE ONION STORE

Artist Now, Now

  • Now, Now Every Children
  • Stacy Schwartz

Despite their years of practice and a few releases, Now, Now’s (the band has dropped the “Every Children”) Cacie Dalager and Brad Hale still have a touch of wide-eyed innocence and humility that contradicts their powerful sound. Though the two twentysomethings are bright-eyed and affable, their music, beautiful as it is, is equally dark and brooding. Dalager and Hale’s live show has a full lineup that includes keyboardist Britty Hale, who is Brad’s sister, and bassist Christine Sako, but their first full-length, Cars, is just the two of them. On Cars, the two bang out a series of Yeah Yeah Yeahs-esque slow-burning songs that feature lyrics from Dalager and music from both members, creating a series of long fuses leading to inevitable explosions. Last year, Now, Now released the Neighbors EP and are working on their full-length follow-up.
