The Framers Get Ready to Hang at Shabang Festival
Imagine this—it’s 11:15 p.m. on a Saturday night. You are walking down the quintessential block of 66 Del Playa, and the SpongeBob theme song escapes from a buzzing backyard. Entertained, you wander over to see a yard lined fence to fence with what seems to be every single person in Isla Vista. On the makeshift stage stands a five-person band: Oliver Chavez and Franky Sansone on guitar, Allison Corwin on bass, Jake Morenc on drums, and Jesse Prior on vocals. The group springs into No Doubt’s “Sunday Morning,” and the crowd sings along. “Who is this again?” a girl whispers loudly to her friend. Before you can decipher her response, the group eases into their own swinging indie ballad, “Angel.” Your eyes land on a white fabric sign: The Framers. You find yourself thinking, “Whatever they’re doing, it’s captivating. Wherever they’re going, it’s in their hands.”
