Tallies is a dream-pop band that hails from Toronto, Canada, formed in 2017. The group is known for their lush soundscapes, shimmering guitars, and ethereal vocals that evoke a blend of nostalgia and contemporary indie sensibilities. The core of the band consists of singer-guitarist Sarah Cogan and guitarist Dylan Frankland, whose creative partnership is at the heart of the band's evocative sound. Their self-titled debut album, "Tallies," released in 2019, introduced them to a broader audience and garnered critical acclaim for its jangly pop melodies and post-punk influences.

With their subsequent releases, Tallies have continued to refine their distinctive style, marked by a marriage of '80s indie pop with modern dream-pop aesthetics. Tracks like "Special," "Hearts Underground," and "Wound Up Tight" showcase the band’s ability to weave dense lyrical themes with bright, catchy instrumentation. Each new release sees them exploring emotional depths while maintaining a sonically uplifting atmosphere, earning them a dedicated following and solidifying their status as one of the promising torchbearers of the genre. Whether unplugged or fully produced, Tallies deliver a sound that is both intimate and expansive, reflecting a band that is steadily rising within the indie music scene.
