The Proxy on purevolume™

Rock / Pop / Indie

We took 2nd place at Purple Door Fest!

Five, upstate New York musicians come together from diverse backgrounds, contrasting musical experiences, and opinionated life outlooks to create an original but familiar melodic landscape. In love with tension filled guitars, pure pop, and atmospheric space, we try to make music that we cant wait to unleash live or repeat over and over again on the audio player of choice. We hope that our songs become innocently addictive but at times back you into a corner and invade your space. We are amused by life, wrestling with its paradoxes, and we try to reflect that in our musical approach. Constantly straining to be accessible melodically, The Proxy remains distracted enough to wonder where the song will take us. We take a journalistic approach to God-ward trust, authentic struggle, intense effort, and elusive hope. We trust that our meanderings automatically create deeper connections and call us out to fight forward. Still, our poor self awareness might be convincing us that we're a better band than we actually are. Oh well, were blazing on anyway.
