American indie pop outfit Other Lives formed as an instrumental project in 2004 under the name Kunek. Based in Stillwater, OK, Kunek (who eventually added vocals to the mix) released one album (Flight of the Flynns) for Play Tyme Records in 2006 before making the transition to the similarly themed Other Lives. The group's eponymous debut album was produced and recorded by drummer/engineer Joey Waronker (Walt Mink, Beck R.E.M.) and released in late 2008.
