About Iqballers
Formed when two members returned to their childhood home of Boston on unrelated roadtrips. After years of disavowing any involvement in music, Peter Killackey casually suggested "we record an album" before his flight back to California. A Providence basement was cased...tape rolled...Peter called his old pal Noah...James called his friend Jeff; each knowing the two would be right at home in such manic weirdness. Crazy chemistry ensued, so much so that Peter never did take that flight to California. This was Valentine's Day 08. By summer, the band had released two LP's and gone on a small tour of New England, to happy audiences (except for one guy). There was a winterlong hiatus, and then a reified commitment, written in blood, on the curtains in Peter's Mom's house, to making perfect music. Local funky bastard Tom Langen was added this spring, and the crazy ride continues.......
