TV Torso is a musical band of friendly Texans with an affinity for skewed pop, repetition, skeletal guitar music, minimalism, tuning drum sets, and recording guitar direct. Matt Oliver and Jordan Johns formed the group in 2008. The two have been playing music together since 2002, when Johns was still in high school and Oliver was blowing his UT tuition on a degree in creative expository writing and Japanese. James Rhea, born in Saudi Arabia, current resident of central Texas, plays the bass guitar.

While early press on the group has been positive, it has tended to fixate on both Oliver and Johns’ previous stint in Sound Team, the avant-pop outfit which after 5 years of self-releasing cassettes, 7-inches, EPs and LPs, and relentless DIY touring, found itself in the role of Austin’s next-big-imploding-major-label-thing. That group fell victim to all of the inevitables associated with such a role and disbanded in 2007.
