AtomMeetsBomb

Atom Meets Bomb are bringing a large, haunting sound with memorable and simple messages to the progressive / indie pop-rock scene. Their songs range from amped up, straight forward sing a longs, emotional pleas, to diverse progressions that hit home on the choruses and wrap up the audience like a warm hug. Atom Meets Bomb, based out of Chicago Illinois, was developed in 2014 by August Fuller He has established deep roots in the Chicago music scene with other successful past and current acts like Bread & Bottle (Johanns Face Records), Repellents (VML Records), Calling All Cars (Studio 127 Records), and his Rock & Soul Preservation band the Soda Jerks. August, wanting to explore different sounds, has gone back to his music baptism and early roots of late 70’s punk / 80’s new wave and incorporating hints of dream pop tones. He envisioned having a female singer to soften the edges of the music and recruited co-worker Raquel Geverola after she had played him a video of her singing along with a backing piano being played by future AMB bass player Frank Jeffrey. Raquel’s engaging vocals and Augusts’ musical creations were the main foundation for Atom Meets Bomb.
