Great name for a band
Fresh Diet
The story
Fresh Diet was born out of the cramped kitchens and bustling food trucks of Portland, Oregon. The four founding members—Ava (vocals/keys), Benji (guitar), Marco (bass), and Lex (drums)—first bonded while waiting tables and sharing playlists during late-night closing shifts. Their love of sampling new cuisines paralleled their drive to blend musical flavors, mixing indie pop with funky grooves and a dash of retro electronic zest.
Inspired by the ever-evolving food scene around them, Fresh Diet quickly became known for their energetic live shows, often themed around culinary adventures. Their debut EP, "Edible Grooves," was a spicy mix of catchy hooks and playful lyrics, earning them a loyal following of music lovers and foodies alike. The band’s philosophy is simple: serve up fresh sounds, encourage creativity, and always leave listeners hungry for more.
