Soccer Team is an American rock band from Washington, D.C., featuring Ryan Nelson (The Most Secret Method, Beauty Pill)[1] and Melissa Quinley.[2]

History

Ryan Nelson and Melissa Quinley met as co-workers at Dischord Records[3] and began writing songs together in Nelson's house.[4] Slowly a collection of fourteen tracks was amassed that the duo released on Dischord as "Volunteered" Civility & Professionalism in 2006.[5] Nelson then relocated to Flint, Michigan to attend school and the project was put on hiatus.

When Nelson returned to Washington D.C. in 2012, the two reunited and added keyboardist/guitarist Jason Hutto (The Aquarium, Warm Sun) and Quinley's husband, drummer Dennis Kane. This lineup released the band's second album, Real Lessons In Cynicism, in 2015.[6] [7]
