Basement Apartment began as the solo project of former Pilot Light
guitarist Vince Caro. Conceived in 2001, BA originally started out
as a school assignment incorporating sound with visuals. Playing
most of the instruments with guitar help from Kristina Kerr
(ex-Pilot Light, Pine Marten Group) and friends, Caro successfully
released Interstellar EP in 2002 on local indie label Susstones to
warm reviews.
In late 2003 to early 2004, Basement Apartment compiled 13 new
tracks for a more realized full-length, "Transistor!" Inspired by
the AM pop of his youth, Caro continued with the lo-fi DIY
attitude that has worked so well in the past. Recorded at various
homes in Minneapolis, the album recruited even more collaborators
this time around. Former Pilot Lighters C.A. Grooms, Steve Finch
and Joey Donahue contribute on production and backbeat
respectively. Ashley Prenzlow of the Mood Swings (bass), Tim
Ritter of Astronaut Wife (bass), Moon Wells of My Liquid Head
(bass), Jesse Peterson of Medication (guitar) and the Original
Mark Edwards on vox sweeten up the mix.
In the spring of 2007, Basement Apartment wrapped up their
follow-up "Pine Tree Hill". A certified "homemade album", Pine
Tree Hill is the first recording encompassing a whole band effort
-- resulting in the band's most organic, melodic and cohesive
collection yet. (www.cdbaby.com)
