Beginning as a side-project by Philly’s renaissance man Mike Kennedy, who’s played in Philly bands such as matt pond PA, Lefty’s Deceiver and Mesmer, Audible has evolved into a full-blown six-piece indie pop machine from their first show opening for indie golden boy Conor Oberst to tours with such notable acts as Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Okkervil River. Their sophomore album, In Simple Intervals (Plot Twist) was released in May 2009 and recorded in Kennedy’s home studio/bedroom, showcases the band’s development since 2005’s debut Sky Signal (Polyvinyl Records) with tighter pop-rock packages reminiscent of 90’s alt legends Kings of Convenience and Yo La Tengo, wrapped in Kennedy’s experimental vision.
