Named after the Amish word for adolescence, Los Angeles, CA's Rumspringa are an avant dance-rock hybrid outfit drawing from the likes of Devendra Banhart and straddling genres like Americana, funk, and all sorts of others. Originally led by Joey Stevens and Itaru de la Vega, Rumspringa have built up a solid reputation through live gigs all over the City of Angels. In 2008, the duo released its first EP, a self-titled affair, on Cantora Records. Stevens continued leading the band after De La Vega's departure. ~ Chris True
