In 2009, Dylan Baldi started Cloud Nothings as a solo project, recording music in his parents’ basement in Westlake, Ohio, while a freshman at Case Western Reserve University. His approach involved creating several fake bands on Myspace to showcase his original compositions. An invitation from New York City rock promoter Todd Patrick to perform at Market Hotel in Brooklyn prompted Baldi to form a live band for the December 2009 show. Recognizing the project’s potential, Baldi left college to pursue music full-time. Cloud Nothings signed with Carpark Records as a one-man band in 2010, releasing the expanded EP “Turning On,” which received positive reviews for its tuneful and witty sound.
Over the years, Cloud Nothings transitioned into a full band, solidifying their lineup with Dylan Baldi on guitar, vocals, and songwriting, Jayson Gerycz on drums, and Chris Brown on bass. Their breakthrough came in 2012 with the album “Attack on Memory,” produced by Steve Albini, which garnered “Best New Music” recognition from Pitchfork. This album marked a shift to a more forceful sound. Subsequent releases like “Here and Nowhere Else” (2014) and “Life Without Sound” (2017) continued to refine their blend of aggressive rock and melodic songwriting, earning them spots at major festivals globally. Their recent album, “Final Summer,” released in April 2024 by Pure Noise Records, further highlights their evolution and commitment to their sound.
The band has consistently toured across North America, Europe, and Asia, performing at festivals such as Coachella, Primavera Sound, Bonnaroo, and Lollapalooza. They have also appeared on television shows like “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.” Through various lineup changes, including the recent shift of Chris Brown to bass following TJ Duke’s departure, Cloud Nothings has maintained a cohesive and evolving musical identity. Their discography includes notable collaborations, such as “No Life for Me” with Wavves in 2015, and a series of Bandcamp exclusive releases, demonstrating their consistent creativity and engagement with their audience.
