At SKORTS’ first show, an amp exploded — call it a freak accident or a catalyzing prophecy — either way, from there was born a band that refused to arrive quietly. And with their debut Incompletement, the group is packaging that power to deliver the album their fans have been waiting for since the group first started taking NYC stages by storm.
Incompletement is pure passion pressed into permanence—polished, stadium-ready rock with a DIY edge, recorded live across three Brooklyn practice spaces with friend and producer Teddy O’Mara. The album is more than SKORTS’ greatest hits—the tracks their fans have eagerly been waiting for since first hearing them live. It also includes two never-performed songs that showcase a more tender side of the band.
SKORTS is a product of creative chemistry and sweet serendipity. The foundation for the band was laid when lead singer and guitarist Alli Walls made what she calls her “big romantic gesture to music” and moved from Denver to New York City in 2021. Upon arrival, she hit it off with Char Smith (lead guitar) at a local guitar shop, and the duo laid down some demos. Char connected with Emma Welch outside a bar, and just like that, the band had their bassist.
