Sweet Spine has become the talk of their scene in the Carolinas. Adrift from the major metropolitan areas, cities like Asheville’s staunch DIY networks have given the band the launchpad they’ve needed to build their notorious live stage presence and begin harboring intimate fan connection. They never wanted to be known as a local band, going big time on their own terms was always the goal. Sweet Spine always had aimed to carve out their own scene. Initially the band members waited tables, worked in factories, and finished school to help fund the band. Throughout the year of 2023, the band released four break out singles, garnering the likes of millions. The band recalls it as an intimidating time, as within months, hundreds of thousands of people were listening. This meteoric push instilled an unwavering devotion in the band. It gave them the hope to realize their dream could come to fruition.  Fast forward a year from then, as a result of incredible dedication to their brand and craft, their album “break//neck” arrives. It is an album that leads with intention, but embraces a broad range of ideas. It’s devoutly eclectic, it’s hung together by an emotional truth, and a profound sense of unity.
