Biz Turkey Bio:

Biz Turkey is an indie rock band from Montpelier, Vermont, Brooklyn, NY and Portland, Maine. Featuring members Graham Wood, Matt Retzer, Josh Hunter, Conrad Carpenter, Ian Stynes and Nathaniel Lesser.

The band blends jangly and sweeping guitars with long walks on the bass. Many of the song’s lyrics are inspired by overheard business-speak both from real life and zooms. Influences include Built to Spill, Dinosaur Jr., Superchunk and Guided by Voices.
