Mortar & Pestle is a new band, but has deep roots. The sounds of a pinball machine at the opening of new EP might say fun, but give way to a darkness that is real. Born on the kitchen piano of a studio apartment, days after Lambert and keyboardist Paul Shinichi first met at a mutual friend’s party, the two were joined within the year by drummer Sean Paul Duke.
Tragically, the friend who brought them together met with an untimely death shortly after she gave the band its name. “She wanted to be the one to name us,” says Shinichi. “We were struggling with a name for months, and then she came up with Mortar & Pestle. I think honoring her life is one reason why we are together. This record is really about her.”
