In this episode, we’re talking with local noise punk band Tiny. Members Noah Bemben, Rebel Barnes, Isabel Nassar, and Austen Utterback have been playing music together in different iterations for years. In 2024, Tiny released their debut album Kill on Sight, while they were all still in high school.

ATMI producer Rhys James sat down with all four band members at our studio to talk about their music. They spoke about the origins of the band, their rowdy shows, and what the future of Tiny looks like now that they’re all moving to the Pacific Northwest.

Hosted by Nathan Pobieglo.

Theme music is by Kendrick Whiteman with additional music from Devin Shreckengost.

Video production and editing by Logan Ehrhart, Charlie Groat, Emmanuel Laron, Rhys James, Jordan Kehl and Vermillion Reed. Watch this episode on YouTube.
