Finn Wolfhard is the name, and the young man perhaps best known as Mike Wheeler from the hit Netflix series Stranger Things now has a band. It started as a way for Wolfhard to channel his success into music, and initially, he was interested in organizing a small festival w/ some of his favorite bands playing. However, he quickly realized his own band was necessary, and he called up some of his homies, and boom! Calpurnia was born. This 7" contains two tracks from the group's forthcoming EP, which was produced by Cadien Lake James (Twin Peaks), "Greyhound" and "Louie." Full of youthful fervor and energy, the tracks are fun and easy to digest, but most importantly, they show the immense potential that the 15-year old has. Can't wait to see what else they have in the pipeline.
