In 1993, two teenagers - James "Jamie" Zoeller from Northern Virginia and Elaine Bradley (then Doty) from the Louisville suburbs of southern Indiana - found themselves uprooted and relocated to Crystal Lake, Illinois
Jamie was a sophomore and Elaine a freshman, when they met in band class. An instant friendship formed, fueled by a shared plan to start a rock band. As they aged, their musical tastes evolved and they gained experience seeing and playing alongside local bands from Chicago's punk and early emo scene. Drawing deep influence from the textured dynamics of Hum and the raw emotionality of Sunny Day Real Estate and Braid, nymb became a staple of the late-90s Chicago scene. Their live shows - celebrated for being both physically and emotionally charged - saw them sharing stages with heavyweights like Cursive, Jets to Brazil, and Hey Mercedes.
Before disbanding in August of 2001 after a raucous farewell show at the Fireside Bowl, nymb left behind a rich discography of demos, EPs, and two full-length albums.
Cutting Teeth: 1997-1999 collects nymb's early work, including the Novembre EP, the Glass Eye EP, the Sanders EP, the Fun Bobby Sessions, an acoustic version of "Rope + Ring", and a previously unreleased three song demo recorded in 1997 by John Emerson and remixed by Bobby Burg. Remastered by Carl Saff, all of the original releases have been out of print for decades.
