With Metric, produced and engineered by Phil Ek (Built to Spill, Modest Mouse, The Shins), Spanish for 100 has produced a followup that digs even deeper into the sonic guitar revelry and truthful songwriting territory first explored in their debut album. Based in Seattle, Spanish for 100 is currently comprised of Aaron Starkey, Chris Crumpler, Ross McGilvray and Corey Passons, working in the two-guitar/bass/drum format.The heart of the group is collaboration based off the whispers of heart-born acoustic songs.

Produced by Phil Ek. Spanish for 100 has built a fan base across the Midwest through multiple regional and U.S. tours

“One of the best up-and-coming bands in Seattle. When I put Spanish for 100 on the air, people stop what they’re doing and contact me immediately, asking ‘who is this band?’” – John Richards, KEXP

“Spanish for 100 draw from obvious nineties indie touchstones like Pavement and Built to Spill, but with a key distinction: these dudes aren’t afraid to play the hero.Where Doug Martsch would record rip-roaring solos with shitty amps to recast his ace axemanship in a self-deprecating light, Spanish for 100 slice through Phil Ek’s studio sheen with gleaming sabers.” – Splendid

“Spanish for 100 could easily be the next best light indie pop-rock gem to emerge from the Seattle underground.” – Smother

“Chock-full of gorgeous moments of dusty rock with a country feedback all kept hip and indie and melodic…there is true radiance in the harmonized vocals…like a Centro-Matic song covered by The Shins…a great find, a sensational band, and you’re going to want in on this before they blow up, leaving you with nothing but back row seats at The Wiltern.” – CultureBunker.com
