Juliet Mission

Tom Murphy

In the early 1990s, Andre Lucero, Doug Seaman, Tony Morales and Elizabeth Rose formed the popular experimental-rock band Sympathy F. Seaman later went on to a brief stint in Worm Trouble, and Morales played in the Kalamath Brothers with Kevin Soll of 16 Horsepower. Lucero and Seaman also performed as the electronic act Loravision and brought what they learned about making that music to their current project, Juliet Mission.

In October 2006, the band played its first show in its warehouse practice space while still calling itself Memory Box. With a name change the following year, the trio's aesthetic crystallized into a soulfully introspective vibe reminiscent of Echo & the Bunnymen and a duskier, late-era the Sound. Though sonically cool-hued, the impression that Juliet Mission's music gives is one of quiet catharsis and a beautiful melancholy, suggesting brighter days ahead — a perfect reflection of Colorado's changeable weather. We spoke with the threesome about the Denver scene of old and its songcraft.
