About
Summer Fits is a four piece 90’s rock-inspired project led by singer/songwriter Melissa Eccles. Under a previous Indie Pop Rock project called We Landed on the Moon! (WLOTM!), all former members played festivals including Jazz Fest, Voodoo Fest, SXSW, and CMJ Music Festival in New York. They produced three albums charting twice in the College Music Journal, and opened for acts including Train, B52’s and Arcade Fire before parting ways in 2011.
In the later months of 2014, several former members of WLOTM! came together to form Summer Fits. They released a small self-titled EP that was named one of the top 20 albums and EP’s to listen to in August of 2015 by adammarxsmind.com. After breaking for a couple of years to refine their sound and attend to life demands, they are excited to debut their new project in New Orleans!
Summer Fits is inspired by 90’s female fronted rock, with elements of power vocals from the 80’s and indie rock inspired guitar riffs of the 2000s. They are currently working on a new album.
Influences - The Kills, Spoon, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Garbage, Til Tuesday, Heart
