Gabe and Tristan have been playing in Native June for 3 years, forming the group in Hollywood, CA. Martial and Scott joined early 2010. The band is heavily influenced by the Kings of Leon, Juliana Theory, Sublime, Weezer, Bloc Party and The Killers.. Native June has melodic gravely vocals with full-toned rhythm guitars coupled with distinctive lead lines, upbeat tempos, moving basslines, and occasionally a rock organ.

The band has maintained a regular gig circuit in the greater Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and San Diego. Native June has played every venue on Sunset Strip at least twice (House of Blues, Key Club, the Whiskey a Go-Go), some over a dozen times (Viper Room, The Roxy), and almost every bar/club/venue in Los Angeles once. Native June's first album, "Whiskey and Walnuts" is available on iTunes, Virgin Megastores, CDbaby, as well as other online distribution sites, selling over 1,000 hard copies and over 30,000 downloads worldwide. Aired to over 5 million viewers, Native June was also featured on “Before and After Movies” on USA Network. Native June is finishing off their second album, "Ocean to Sunset" in preparation for a spring release in 2010. The band has also recently released music videos for their singles "Daisy" and "Saturday night."
