About Racoma
Seattle-based band Racoma crafts a front porch soundscape where indie and folk influences intertwine, evoking a casual warmth like reconnecting with an old friend. Glenn Haider’s earnest vocals are complemented by Spencer Templeman’s dynamic drum sound and Sean Collopy’s lyrical guitar.
Each person’s element is essential, like voices in the heartfelt conversations that make up Racoma’s songs. Their collective sound radiates human connection, with emotional depth that draws listeners in to reflect long after the music fades.
For their next album, Racoma is continuing to keep things fresh by diving into something a bit different. The band partnered with fly-fishing bassist Garret Gue to record live takes directly to analog tape at Sage Arts Recording Studio, capturing a lively and melodic approach rich with spontaneity and unafraid of imperfections. In Vine is playful and looser, capturing wistful joy in a way that feels both intimate and raw.
The heartfelt, live recording of In Vine brings Racoma’s energy straight to the songs, inviting listeners to feel like they’re right in the room, immersed in every story. The stripped-down process felt like the perfect way to capture the group’s latest sound that mixes old and new in a captivating and nostalgic way.
