Annuals are an indie rock band formed in 2003 in Raleigh, North Carolina, United States. The band consists of Adam Baker (vocals, synthesizer/guitar), Kenny Florence (guitar/lapsteel), Anna Spence (keyboards/vocals), Mike Robinson (bass), Zack Oden (guitar/drums) and Nick Radford (drums)

Nineteen year-old Adam Baker, a kid from Raleigh, NC with a faultless ear and a potent desire to create unheard-of sounds, is the architect of Annuals. Under Adam’s stewardship, Annuals transform pop paradigms into sweeping, luxuriant sonic landscapes while remaining faithful to a wholehearted emotional core. Carefully layering each song with a thousand noises and feelings, Annuals camouflage the deep simplicity of what they do, belying their youth with deftness & complexity.

Music fans seem to be looking for an answer to the questions of memory, surroundings, and love recently posed by musicians like Arcade Fire and Sufjan Stevens. Annuals have created a dense thicket of music that naturally replies, in a new and young voice, to these queries. All we have to do is listen.
