The following is a Q&A with Sand Reckoner, one of the deli’s bands of the month in April! Be sure to check out their website for free downloads of The Shepherd EP and Sing Us Your Lies.
deli: How did the band start?
Sand Reckoner: Matt and Ben have been playing music together for around 8 years now, and with Jon for the last 4. After being in a few different groups together, and relocating to Boston in 2009, we found our sound coming together in much more concrete way.
deli: Where did the band name, Sand Reckoner, come from?
SR: Ben found the name of a band while reading about Archimedes’ theory "The Sand Reckoner". It comes from a paper Archimedes wrote about a hypothesis of how many grains of sand it would take to fill the entire universe.
