Living With Giants

Living With Giants is an instrumental project from Sacramento, California. Starting as a solo project in 2009 by Ryan Mannie, the project gained more members, releasing their debut album in 2011. From 2014-2021 the band took some time off, finally returning as the duo of Carver Simmons and Ryan. The band has since continued releasing new music comprised of the crescendoing drums, droning bass, airy guitars and immersive atmosphere which they have become recognized for. In 2024 Living With Giants introduced McKay Curteman as their percussionist, adding new sonic characters to their vocabulary. With a sound being described as both “waves of crashing distorted guitars” and “beautiful” listeners are offered a varied take on soundcrafting.
