Irvine, California-based indie pop band Breach The Summit features Olen Kittelsen (vocals/drums), Sam Beresford (keyboards/piano), Jacob Berger (guitar/backing vocals), and Kody Buxton (bass/backing vocals).
The name Breach The Summit wasn’t what the Irvine four-piece began with. Beresford says “we used to have an extremely not-unique name and were desperately trying to come up with something better...” It was a phone call that Beresford had with a former member of the band that sparked a back and forth discussion of potential band names, with the former member rejecting the majority of them. At the end of the conversation the former member told Beresford to write down Breach The Summit. Understandably Beresford asked why and added “that’s the stupidest name I’ve ever heard”. It came down to a vote and Breach The Summit was chosen and it has grown on them since. It’s a part of who they are and Beresford can’t imagine them being called anything else.
The broad genre of indie pop that Breach The Summit creates comes from a variety of influences. The four band members all listen to tons of different music and share their new discoveries with each other. Whilst they get a lot of comparisons, there isn’t one that is constant. They rather like to think of themselves as a bit of everything – including Two Door Cinema Club, Young The Giant, Foals, Walk The Moon, Death Cab For Cutie, Bastille, Kings Of Leon and Vampire Weekend amongst many more. This sound that combines everything, but doesn’t single out one thing is a little bit of a trend with indie bands of late, but one thing sets Breach The Summit apart becomes obvious when you see them in the live environment – Kittelsen is the lead singer...and the drummer. Beresford remarks “people are usually pretty surprised when they learn that and wonder how it’s possible”. Beresford himself doesn’t even know, but Kittelsen makes it work pretty damn well.
They released their latest EP “The City” in November 2013 and it is an EP that differs lyrically, but has an overarching theme that speaks to the road to success in music. The name The City was actually a working title for You Don’t Know, which Beresford says “is a good representation of the theme of the EP as a whole”. Living in Southern California and Los Angeles puts Breach The Summit right at the epicentre of the music industry, with LA almost demanding the best out of everyone if you want any chance of succeeding. Therefore, The City EP is all about trying to overcome all of the obstacles and make it in the music industry.
When it comes down to things that Breach The Summit want to achieve in the future, Beresford actually has a file saved on his computer containing a hefty list of goals the band wants to achieve. One of their biggest goals is to play Coachella, with some of the members attending the festival last year; the atmosphere is something that Beresford really wants to be a part of with Breach The Summit in hopefully the not too distant future.
