Hearts and Minutes consists of long time collaborators Vincent Covarrubias (Portland) and Griffin Wright (Los Angeles), with a variety of friends who join us on recordings and live. We play rock music.
We thrive on experimentation and the uncertainty and excitement of allowing our music to change. Live we can be anywhere between a two-piece and a six-piece depending on what city we are in. Each performance is unique, the way live music should be.

Brigades Like This combines dreamy epic melodies with urgent and noisy breaks. Two guitars and an occassional somber keyboard circle over bass loops and a drum crescendo, while the two vocalists trade passionate words. Formed early in 2005, the band released its debut album on Lifeboat Records in 2007.

Devolves began in 2002 in Berkeley, CA as a three-piece under the name November Occupation. The band was Griffin Wright on guitar/vox, Antares Meketa on drums and Mark Meyer on bass. In 2004 the band changed their name to Devolver, released their debut album "Life Science", and soon after became a two-piece, with Mark leaving the band. In 2005, Griffin and Antares parted ways. Griffin carries on the band under the name Devolves. It is mainly a one-piece with occasional guests. Devolves dabbles in effects-laden guitars, moody keyboards, and drums that follow odd time signatures with a rough edge. With soulful cries over the top, a sparse yet grand sound ensues. Devolves released "Devolves" in 2005.
