About
Pleasant Grove so named for a Dallas, Texas suburb, was formed by co-vocalists / guitarists Bret Egner and Marcus Striplin. They were drawn together by a vision to write and play music that captured raw melancholy melodies laid out over slow spacious rhythmic harmonies.
Pleasant Grove recorded most of "The Art of Leaving" at Closer Recording in San Francisco with Dylan Magierek (Mark Kozelek, Call and Response, Erlend Oye) at the helm and the rest in their hometown of Dallas, TX with Stuart Sikes, who has produced acts such as The Walkmen, The Grifters and The White Stripes.
"The Art of Leaving may be a lyrically appropriate title, but this release also indicates that Pleasant Grove may be here to stay." - Orlando Weekly

The Art of Leaving
Pleasant Grove so named for a Dallas, Texas suburb, was formed by co-vocalists / guitarists Bret Egner and Marcus Striplin. They were drawn together by a vision to write and play music that captured raw melancholy melodies laid out over slow spacious rhythmic harmonies. The Art of Leaving is a mesmerizing set of songs - gut-wrenching, sophisticated, built up from the barest arrangement to an often explosive climax- while echoing dense layers of sound and devices. Available through our site now.
