Instantly infectious, Priory walks a tightrope between immediately catchy, instantly warming songs and subdued, complex layers that take multiple listens to start to unravel and understand the depths at what theyre going for. "Its finding that balance between the standard acoustic instruments and partnering them with huge electronic bass and keyboard licks," says the bands Kyle Dieker when asked to describe their sound. "Priory is all about tones and where those sounds sit in a song. Blending folk melodies with pop sensibility, Priory takes from a collection of sounds and brings them together into something that is familiar yet innovative." This is a band that has something for everyone, without trying to be everything to everybody.

Portland, Oregon duo Priory make laid-back left-field pop based around electronic beats, but with plenty of guitar and sweetly harmonizing vocals. Brandon Rush and Kyle Sears met in the early 2000s while living in the same rundown, multi-tenant bachelor pad, and struck up a long-running friendship based on their shared musical interests. After years of working on music together, they finally put together a band and in 2011 released a folk-inspired self-titled album on the Expunged label. The experience wasn't as rewarding as they'd hoped and the project was put on hold. After trimming down to a duo, quitting their day jobs, building a new studio in an old cement plant, and revamping their approach, Warner Bros. was sufficiently impressed with their new, poppier sound to sign the duo and release their first single, the relaxed summer anthem "Weekend," in June of 2014. A four song EP, titled "Weekend" was issued later that year, and the band set off on their first tour. Their second album, Need to Know, arrived in April 2015.
