Causing A Ruckus With PATRICK MIRANDA From MOVEMENTS

Interview by Erin Eddy
If you’re some kind of sonic Marie Kondo and like tucking bands away into clearly labelled musical genre boxes, you’re going to have a hard time with Movements.
The Californian four-piece glides between musical genres in a way that could potentially lead you to dismiss them on first listen, that is of course, if your first listen hits on a style that may not exactly be your glass of whiskey.
“I do think that we are, in my opinion, a ‘live’ band,” Movements vocalist Patrick Miranda told
HEAVY, “and I think in many cases, maybe if you don’t like the band, once you see it live you’re like ‘ohhh, okay, I get it’, you know? I think Movements is definitely that sort of band for a lot of people.”
Movements sway between indie rock, post-hardcore, emo, pop rock and their mission is to not box themselves in to any one style.
“I love the fluidity that we have as a band, and I hope that continues to grow because I think there’s something on this album for everybody. If there’s one community of music listeners who enjoy even one song we make, then that’s a win for me,” Patrick states. “We just want the music to reach as many people as possible. All we don’t want is to be put into a box.”
Movements are geared up for the release of their third studio album, Ruckus, which will be available on August 18.
“The energy and overall feeling of this record is so fun and youthful and exciting, and it makes me so happy that I know that when it comes to playing these songs live it’s just going to feel even better,” Patrick gleams.
HEAVY spent time talking with Patrick about being in Movements and the ins and outs of their new album, Ruckus, so check out the full interview now!
