About Me



Formed in late 2003, The Invasion has steadily been trudging into the Northwest music scene. One of a handful of bands to play with The Pixies on their 2004 reunion tour, The Invasion has consistently received acclaim from press and audiences alike. Drawing from classical, folk, and jazz influences, The Invasion plays a well rounded and unique brand of indie rock.
