Graduating Life are an emo/indie/punk band Fresno, California. They consist primarily of Bart Starr (vocals/guitar) and drummer Logan Jensen, along with numerous other collaborators. They’re a Counter Inuitive Records band, thus are one of the most notable acts in the modern emo scene, along with other notable bands like Prince Daddy & The Hyena and Mom Jeans. (who Bart is also a part of). If you’re familiar with those bands, you might have a slight idea as to how Graduating Life sound. It’s upbeat, energetic music, with vocals singing poppy melodies with a gruff voice, and lyrically detailing the abyss of sadness while rocking the fuck out on the surface. I don’t know how to describe it, most people are probably familiar with this band anyway (because they get requested to death). If you’re new though, both their full-lengths (particularly their most recent one, Grad Life) are solid front-to-back. Enjoy.
