full catholic

MINNEAPOLIS-based full catholic is a psych collective that fell asleep and dreamed it was a folk band that dreamed it was a rock band. Their sound is built around probing social lyricism intensified by vocalist/bassist Dani Michaele, whose gut-dwelling timbre is both at times turbulent and tremulous. Adding a frenzy of guitar and synth to the mix, Lane Miller and John Caldwell weave dynamic lines through wistful atmospherics that transcend alongside the distinctive jangly rhythms crafted by drummer Des Lawrence. full catholic often explores passageways through liminal territories, where light and dark, beauty and chaos overlap. Listeners describe their music as "raw and vivid...a beautifully messy display of vulnerability" [Glide Magazine] with songwriting that “speaks to an enlightened generation forced to endure more of the same out of pure designed resignation” [The Wild is Calling]. The band's debut LP, every dream at once, was listed by Mike Mineo of Obscure Sound in the top 20 best albums of 2022. Their second LP "all is well" was released the following year, with a third record coming in Fall 2024.
