The Frequency


The Frequency was an independent rock band from Los Angeles, CA. Marc Cazorla
and Alex Stiff, later of The Record Company, were the core songwriting and recording duo behind the music. They
used an array of analog and vintage instruments to create sounds
described by NME as "stripped back music strengthened by simplicity as much as
beauty". Q Magazine gave the release "Morning to 3 A.M." 3 out of 4
stars and hailed the band as "able to form perfectly crafted Air-like synth-pop
while also stretching their wings on the 17 minute ever-shifting psych rock
track 'Ego Is the Drug/3 A.M.'
In 2010, The Frequency signed a worldwide publishing deal with in the UK. The song "Jim Gordon Part II" played all over the
globe due to being licensed for a yearlong BlackBerry television commercial
campaign. Music from The Frequency was also featured in major motion pictures
and television shows.
Inspired by music from Pink Floyd, Air, Can, and Spiritualized, the live show added
intensity to the music. The Frequency shared the stage with diverse artists, such as Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Bravery, Primus, Matisyahu, Mutemath, and Lotus. The show was described as an audio/visual feast for the senses and led Quebec City's newspaper to
declare "The Frequency should be on every rock fan's radar."
The Frequency's "Jim Gordon Part II" was nominated for the 7th Annual Independent Music Awards for Jam Song of the year.
