Part of a new generation of bands formed over Zoom and FaceTime, Tarnish began in 2020 when guitarist/vocalist Karl Forster and bassist Dane Carlson started working on tracks despite living over 400 miles apart. The California-based group, now rounded out by drummer Jack Breger and guitarist Natty P, comes from a diverse musical background with influences all over the genre spectrum, but with a shared love for the 2010s pop punk/emo sound. With introspective lyrics and hard-hitting riffs, Tarnish has been working to craft a signature sound that stands out from the crowd.

Recorded with Ben Hirschfield (The Story So Far, Mom Jeans., No Pressure), their most recent single, “Feeling The Same,” explores new territory for the band, experimenting with time signatures and song structure. Coming off the success of the poppier, yet similarly intense, “Cold Walks to the Liquor Store” in July, the juxtaposition between these singles showcases the band’s range as they gear up for the release of their next EP. The band continues to build off their success in their respective Sacramento and San Diego local scenes, and has had the privilege of performing in venues such as the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco and the Observatory in Santa Ana. Actively seeking new ways to expand their audience, Tarnish is eager to grow as artists and performers, while still maintaining the sincerity of their work.
