Fergus & Geronimo are an experimental rock band from Denton, Texas. The duo has a multi-genre approach to songwriting, with influences including soul, pop, proto-punk, garage rock and psychedelic pop.
The band started in late 2008 when Jason Kelly and Andrew Savage were working on the Teenage Cool Kids album , which Kelly was recording/mixing. The initial idea was to draw from such influences as Mothers of Invention and The Four Tops.[1] Praise for recordings leaked on the internet helped garner attention early in the band's career.[2] In July 2009 Woodsist released the first single, "Harder Than It's Ever Been". On recording, Savage and Kelly are the main performers, but are joined live by a rotating personnel of musicians.[3]
