When Story One’s debut EP landed at the List offices we " were initially snared by their nifty take on the Grandaddy song ‘AM 180’ and their own tracks - a veracious blend of Muse-ish hugeness and Wilco-ish smallness — sneakin worked their way into our bruised and battered craniums. The quartet do things a bit differently, leading with violin instead of guitar or piano, tinging their songs with that kind of melancholy we love to love.
