Blank Range is an American rock band based out of Nashville, TN. The band consists of singer Jonathon Childers, drummer Matt Novotny, bassist Taylor Zachry, and guitarist/singer Grant Gustafson. Rolling Stone magazine describes their sound as a “magical combination of dissonant, Pavement-esque and pavement-ready garage rock & roll with a keen grasp of how to make it all wildly melodic — thanks to super-sticky riffs, restrained psychedelia and a sense of composition that's restless, surprising and pretty fearless.”
Overview
Blank Range has opened for Margo Price, Tyler Childers, Spoon, Alice in Chains, Drive-By Truckers, and Death Cab for Cutie. Blank Range played Luck Reunion and Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in 2018.

Their debut album, Marooned With the Treasure, was released in 2017 and named Best Rock Album that year by the Nashville Scene.Nashville Scene Blank Range is set to release their self-released sophomore album In Unison, on February 1st, 2019. Pittsburgh City Paper calls their new single, "Change Your Look" a raucous garage pop good time which effortlessly showcases their blistering grooves, sticky-sweet melodies, and whip-smart lyricism.
