Talk Time

TALK TIME is a Los Angeles-based trio blending driving, melodic indie rock
with thoughtful lyrics and sharp songwriting. Their sound lives in a lush
world of dreamy textures, punchy rhythms, and undeniable hooks.

Formed in 2018, songwriter and vocalist Edson Choi and guitarist Mike Nissen
quietly built a following with a run of early releases before bringing
drummer and keyboardist Jon Bradley into the fold.

The addition prompted the band to step back in 2023 and recalibrate, emerging with a new chapter
of sonically rich, deceptively simple pop songs that feel immediate and
deeply human, effortlessly walking the line between colorful and
introspective, laid-back and anthemic.

Drawing inspiration from artists like The Flaming Lips and The Police, Talk
Time pairs emotional depth with shimmering soundscapes. As Culture
Collide noted, “…the band pulls off an anthem-like quality reminiscent of
Future Islands’ synth-pop while infusing an unmistakable California glow,
somewhere between neon and the soft pink on the horizon.”
