The Autocollants

The story

Upon the 1996 release of their first EP, Casa, the Southern California quartet known as the Autocollants brought on their styling of gentle indie pop. With the lineup consisting of Laura Watling (lead vocals/bass), Dwayne (guitar), Tim (guitar), , and Ed (drums), their appeal of Stereolab, Lush, and a trademark of breezy, relaxed appear continued the following year as Drive-In Records packaged the bands second EP Tennis Racket. However, by 1997 The Autocollants called it quits amidst personal and creative differences.
