L.S. Dunes

This Big Sound episode features supergroup, L.S. Dunes featuring Anthony Green (Circa Survive), Frank Iero (My Chemical Romance), Travis Stever (Coheed and Cambria), Tim Payne (Thursday) and Tucker Rule (Thursday). This episode was filmed at Studio 606 on the legendary Neve 8078 mixing board from Sound City (around 20 ever made and used for artists like Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Tom Petty, Fleetwood Mac, Paul McCartney and many more). The setlist includes "2022", "Benadryl Subreddit", and a Police cover fans may recognize, "Wrapped Around Your Finger".

"Any time I get to make music with people I respect and that inspire me is a highlight. But to also get to do that in such a fantastic studio on such incredible gear, it's a complete dream come true. I can't believe this is my job"

— Frank Iero

What L.S. Dunes is currently up to:

Now, with the release of their second full-length album on 1/31/25, Violet– once again helmed by Grammy-nominated producer Will Yip– L.S. Dunes live up to the promise set by their debut, and in many ways, open up an opportunity to rediscover the band in a different light: Where Past Lives takes its oxygen from the thrill of frenzy and impulsiveness, Violet breathes deeper with a more open and expansive palette. Whether it lives in the confident and steady pulse of a song like “Machines,” in the rousing lyrical empowerment of “Paper Tigers,” or in the way that “Forgiveness” forges itself as an anthem for love and unconditional acceptance in the face of our personal failures, Violet is a body of work that secures multiples outcomes: There is hindsight, There is hope, Thie is, in fact, magic.
