The Arm

What began being a weeklong, seven-song saving test became something even more for sweaty disco-infused indie rockers the Arm. Produced in Austin in 2001 and offering Sean O’Neal on vocals, Alex Lyon on electric guitar, Alex Ramirez on bass, and Kevin Bybee on drums, the group toured with rings like British Ocean Power and International Sound Conspiracy, and produced appearances in the CMJ Music Marathon (2005) and SXSW (2006). They released their self-titled debut in 2003, plus they adopted it up with Contact You Out, released on Indierect Information, three years later on.
