At their home studio, songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Alex Arnold collaborates with friends to flesh out the project's recordings and live iterations, resulting in albums and shows that balance varied stylistic tendencies - orchestrated rock, synthpop, experimental noise, jazz and classical inspired harmonic progressions, and ambient group improvisation. The Fourth Wall was formed in 2011 on the island of Oahu. After releasing their first record (Motion & Rest), they quickly gained local notoriety, opening for visiting national acts like Andrew Bird, The Shins, and Menomena. In 2012, The band relocated to Portland, Oregon. Since their move, they've released two highly acclaimed records through Portland label, Bug Hunt. The Portland Mercury called their 2015 album ( Lovely Violence ) “something of a wonder: an engrossing, fully realized and vitalized record with no easy musical touchstone." The band went on a few tours following the release of Lovely Violence and landed an opening spot with Band of Horses. They are currently recording their fourth album.
