the WANDAS are an American rock band based out of Boston Massachusetts composed of Keith McEachern, Brent Battey, Ross Lucivero, William Bierce and Greg Settino.
New Interface (a design with friends for the future) is the band's follow up to their critically acclaimed self-titled record The Wandas (album). New Interface (a design with friends for the future), released June 25, 2013, was produced by Joel Ford of Ford & Lopatin and mixed by Patrick Krief of The Dears. The Boston Globe stated "The Wandas 'New Interface (A Design with Friends for the Future),' is experimentation done right, as the band's more artistic forays add depth and intrigue to the sound without sacrificing the band's core of solid song craft.
Their self-titled album was released on August 30, 2011. It was featured in USA TODAY and was named one of the "50 best albums of the first half of 2011" by Guitar World Magazine.
In 2008, the WANDAS teamed up with Producer Patrick Krief, guitarist of The Dears to record New Wave Blues. The album was tracked in Boston, Massachusetts and mixed and mastered in Montreal, Quebec Canada. New Wave Blues was both produced and mixed by Krief, and was mastered by Ryan Morey (Arcade Fire, Wolf Parade and The Stills).
