Phosphenes
Find Us Where We're Hiding
Hailing from Weimar, Germany, PHOSPHENES, a visual arts collective and band, was founded by composer and producer, Harry Starbuck, and vocalist/lyricist, Julee Bee. Although the band was not formed until 2017, they met accidentally many years ago when Julee, a former freelance journalist, interviewed Harry about his previous band for a music magazine. They realized throughout the course of the interview that they had striking similarities in their tastes in music, and PHOSPHENES is the result of a friendship that was cultivated with care in the following years. Named after one of Julee"s internationally published and exhibited Polaroids, PHOSPHENES is a collection of the choicest fruits from Electro, Rock, Pop, and Wave influences and NY based-magazine "The Fader", who premiered their debut single Girls Trip, say about the band: "This German rock group could"ve soundtracked your favorite teen movie. Their indication is guitar-backed teenage nostalgia, with catchy riffs and soaring hooks
