EP Bio

“Friends of the Year” was recorded in the summer/fall of 2012 in various houses in and around Denton. Tracked and mixed by singer/guitarist Roy Robertson, with Ramon Muzquiz on drums and percussion and Pablo Burrull on bass the EP was mastered by Matt Pence at Echo Labs in Denton.
The EP’s subject matter and aural textures sway vastly throughout the 18 minute long recording but return to what is perhaps the defining element of Pageantry as a band: its desire to create a holistic experience. From dread to glee, sarcasm to earnestness, apologies to accusations and everything in between, Pageantry attempts to capture the ephemeral moments of life through words and music.

Band Bio

Roy, Ramon and Pablo met through the Denton music scene with all three members performing in various bands that played together from time to time. It wasn’t until after Roy recorded an unreleased solo record with Ramon on drums that the two began a friendship which turned into a collaboration that eventually led to the formation of a new project. Pablo was immediately added to lineup and Pageantry was officially born in May 2012. The group has since toured the region extensively from Oklahoma City to Austin and Houston as well as the entire DFW metroplex including an official showcase at 2013’s 35 Denton.

lyrics

You in your haste to explore your regions
Laid rarely low to devise your reasons

Cut down the hair from the tree you lived in
Claim your mistakes underneath your breathing

My ears have bled so I must be learning
Crawl on my tongue and believe you're nothing

Slave to the pain that dissolves your seasons
compassionate with a hint of tyrant

Jealous you're jealous your eyes are stagnant
From all the reasons so hard to come by

Friends of the year.
