Originally known as big bird., the band formed in 2022 from the ashes of numerous punk/hardcore/indie bands including Typesetter, Little Teeth, The Sky We Scrape, etc. After quickly releasing a three-song EP, they supported heavy hitters like Local H, The Casket Lottery, Cherubs, Rid of Me, Kowloon Walled City, along with appearances at Gainesville’s legendary FEST in 2022 and 2023.

With the perfect mix of melody, aggression, and energy, Portland, Oregon’s FeverSleep land somewhere between the worlds of punk and grunge – If genres are your thing. Consisting of former members of Young Livers, Dikembe, and Lock and Key, Fever Sleep’s debut self-titled EP is characterized by its ferocious thrum of overdriven bass, prowling riffs, and soaring melodies rounded out with a touch of melancholy.
