The Antlers

One of the more noteworthy bands to emerge out of the early 21st-century Brooklyn indie rock scene, The Antlers writes intelligent songs that typically communicate a heart-rendering message. The band broke out with its 2009 album, Hospice, which tells the story of a hospice worker's relationship with a terminally ill patient. Since emerging, The Antlers has found a substantial fan base in the indie community and has gone on to maintain a busy recording and touring schedule.
