People Get Ready

the brooklyn-based people get ready is steven reker, luke fasano (ex-yeasayer), james rickman (ex-lizzie trulie, ex-slow gherkin), and jen goma (a sunny day in glasgow). the band's distinct brand of vivid electronic pop bursts with energy, propelled by swirling and swelling harmonies, hard- to-shake melodies and high-energy rhythms set to a vocal ebb and flow led by reker but harmonized and intensified by the entire band. their self-titled debut album was recorded by emerging composer / performer / producer jherek bischoff in the summer of 2011 at denniston hill, an old farm house in upstate ny.
