“Daphne Blue” took the group’s production from lo-fi to stadium-ready, ramping up their electric guitars and drums, and letting their powerful vocals soar. “Right after we wrote it, we were like, ‘We have something different here, and this kind of defines where we’re headed.’” Echoes Spencer, “It gave us a different vision of what we could be.” “That was a big season of when everything changed,” Jeffery says, calling tryhard’s roaring lead single, “Daphne Blue,” the “turning point” for the band. Garrison’s addition came at a pivotal time for The Band Camino creatively, as 2018 was also the beginning of their partnerships with Nashville superproducer Jordan Schmidt and singer-songwriter Seth Ennis. Their growth has been largely stimulated by raw discovery, even catching the attention of Taylor Swift, who included the band’s reflective song “Berenstein” on her “Songs I’m Loving Right Now” playlist in 2018. But the group has clearly made an impact since their start, garnerning 2.6 million monthly Spotify listeners and more than 330 million global streams to date. The Band Camino completely sold out their 20 headlining tours, as well as their biggest headlining show to date at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium in September 2021 - the latter of which sold out in 10 minutes. That magic has seemingly been evident to fans, too. It was cool to be part of something that was growing and was bigger than me, and bigger than each of them. Everybody’s very appreciative of each other and what they bring to the table. Garrison agrees: “There was this instant chemistry, and everybody on the team could feel it. “As soon as we played the first show together, we knew we hit it off,” Jeffery recalls. It was a fateful move for founding members Jeffery and Spencer, college buddies-turned-bandmates who were in search of a drummer and recruited Garrison upon arriving in Music City. The pop-rock three-piece (singers/guitarists Jeffery Jordan and Spencer Stewart, and drummer Garrison Burgess) have been honing their dynamic Band Camino sound since relocating from Memphis to Nashville in 2018. 10 on dblblk/Elektra Records, expands on the guitar-driven pop that the group introduced with their anthemic debut EP tryhard in 2019. Now, they have a self-titled album to prove it. After more than five years as a band, The Band Camino have never felt more confident in their music.
