Local Natives is an indie-rock band based out of Silver Springs, Las Angeles, Their sound has been described as "afropop-influenced guitars with hyperactive drumming and hooky three-part harmonies"
The band came together in Orange County, where Kelcey Ayer, Ryan Hahn, and Taylor Rice attended high school. One year after graduating, they were joined by bassist Andy Hamm and drummer Matt Frazier. In December 2008, they all moved to a house in Silver Lake and started work on their debut album. Their Debut Album "Gorilla Manor" was named after the house that they all shared.
