About the Artist

Independent music from Arlington, Virginia, Atlanta, Georgia, and Louisville, Kentucky. Hi. We play shows sometimes. Exit Vehicles is an indie rock four piece who formed in 2013 as a project between twin brothers Brian and Adam Polon. After being in several bands and releasing several albums apart on the east coast, the brothers felt it was finally time to try something together, and quickly sketched out 50 original songs on bass and guitar, met drummer Jacob McLocklin (also in DC’s indie/pop/rock outfit Cake and Calculus), and recorded 30 tracks with variations on Soundcloud under the project name The Debuggers (the three bandmembers all work in the DC computer/tech sector). The brothers found singer Brian Easley (a recent DC transplant via Austin and Chicago) through the Internet and began playing a show every month across DC for the next year under the name Exit Vehicles, their homage to science, space, technology, and NASA. Easley currently lives in Louisville, Kentucky and returns occasionally to record and play shows with the band. Exit Vehicles recorded STAGES, their first LP, at the Lighthouse Recording Studio in Del Ray, Virginia with Peter Larkin early in 2015. The ten track album is a tribute to the Polon brothers’ intricate and complex songwriting, McLocklin’s dazzling drumwork, and Easley’s visceral lyrics and wiry vocals. The most recent follow up is their single, Titanic, recorded and mastered by the same Larkin/Harris partnership. Their 2014 EP offering – which Natan Press of The Deli Magazine described as “Aggressive yet melodic, progressive yet tight, a solid post-punk rhythm section drives a clean alt/indie sound reminiscent of the best in the city’s history” – was recorded at Inner Ear Studio in Arlington, Virginia by Don Zientara.
