Infinite River includes three key figures of Detroit's storied underground sound legacy: Gretchen Gonzales (Universal Indians, Slumber Party), Warren Defever (His Name is Alive), and Joey Mazzola (Detroit Cobras, Sponge). The band first incubated in distance and downtime of early 2020, and emerged as an oozing, spacy sparkle of improvised psychedelia. Their first two form-shifting albums, Prequel and Space Mirror, were released months apart in 2023, and both were assembled from various pathfinding recording sessions tracked in the band's earliest days. The spiritual drones and stargazing tones of Infinite River's nascent phases take on bolder force and format with its newest work, Tabula Rasa, an album that crystalizes the band's free-floating energy into more easily recognizable song structures, but loses none of their mystical power in the transformation.
In 2025, Infinite River was featured on The Inploration LP alongside artists including Esperanza Spalding, Suzanne Ciani, Wilco, Toro y Moi, Lustmord, Karin Park, and Mo KC. They also performed at the Universe Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale, in partnership with Inploration, a creative consultancy that explores the intersection of space and art.
