Hometown: Los Angeles

Sounds like: A collective that's equally comfortable harmonizing on '70s-style Hollywood Hills piano rock as it is churning out urgent, high-tech indie pop.

Recommended if you like: Broken Social Scene, Fleetwood Mac, Port O'Brien

You should know: The band's original name was Bogie Ogreton -- partially inspired by the ogre-like/large nature of the band members' feet.

Family of the Year is an American indie rock band based in Los Angeles, California consisting of members Joseph Keefe (vocals/guitar), Sebastian Keefe (drums/vocals), James Buckey (guitar/vocals), and Christina Schroeter (keyboard/vocals). Their music uses melodic male/female vocal harmonies and folk tale-style lyrics. They are perhaps best known for their international chart hit, "Hero", which became a top 10 hit in Austria, Belgium, Germany, and Switzerland.

Family of the Year self-released their debut EP ‘Where's the Sun’ on their Washashore imprint in September 2009. The EP includes "Let's Go Down", "Castoff", "Summer Girl", "What a Surprise", and "Psyche or Like Scope".

In October 2009, they were picked out of 700 artists by Ben Folds and Keith Lockhart to open for Ben and The Boston Pops at Symphony Hall. Shortly after, the band flew west for California shows with Bell X1 before returning east for the CMJ Music Marathon, marking Family of the Year’s New York debut. SPIN selected the band as one 25 Must-Hear Artists from the 2009 CMJ Festival.In November 2009, they hit the road with Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros in support of their debut album, ‘Songbook’.

In November 2009, the band released their debut full-length album titled ‘Songbook’.

In January 2010, the band announced the release of an exclusive song for every month of that year through their e-mail list and followed that with the digital release of their second EP ‘Through the Trees’ on March 9 under their own imprint, Washashore Records.

Family of the Year has been recognized for independent fundraising. Donation-based sales for the band's first EP Where's the Sun helped fund the recording of their debut LP ‘Songbook’, and the band has funded touring through online merchandise sales of items like postcards.

In July 2012, the band released their second album ‘Loma Vista’ with Nettwerk Records, produced by Wally Gagel. With the release, the band has been included in a number of emerging artist features on MTV, ‘USA Today’, ‘Entertainment Weekly’, ‘Paste’,’Billboard’, Amazon,KCRW, and ‘Interview’. The album peaked at #35 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers Chart.

With their second single, "Hero", Family of the Year has made a run of late-night TV appearances on shows including ‘The Tonight Show with Jay Leno’, ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’, ‘Conan’, and two episodes of ‘Last Call with Carson Daly’. The single peaked at #12 on the Billboard Alternative Songs Chart. At radio, "Hero" reached #1 on the Triple A Top 30 Radio Chart and Top 15 at Alternative Radio. The song was prominently used in Richard Linklater's Oscar-nominated 2014 film ‘Boyhood’.

The group has shared the stage with a variety of artists, including fun., Mumford & Sons, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Walk the Moon, Good Old War, Grouplove, Atlas Genius and others. With their first headline tour of 2013, the band sold out shows across the country, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Indianapolis, Nashville, Denver, Portland and more. Often joining them on the road is touring bassist Alex Walker.

On June 8, 2015, the band released the debut single "Make You Mine" off its forthcoming self-titled album. The album "Family of the Year" debuted September 4, 2015 to positive reviews calling it "broad and accessible."

The band has been a mainstay of summer festivals, including Lollapalooza, Summerfest, Downsview, BottleRock Napa Valley, Guinness Oyster & Music Festival, Launch Sacramento, Mariposa Folk Festival, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and others.
