History

Remember Sports formed in 2012 when all members were attending Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. [1] [2] They released their first album in 2014 on Bandcamp titled Sunchokes. [3] [4] In 2015, Sports signed to Father/Daughter Records, where they released their second album titled All of Something. [3] [5] [6] The album was produced by Kyle Gilbride (Waxahatchee, Upset, Field Mouse). [7] All of Something was recorded primarily while most of the members were still in college. [8] The album received four stars out of five by Rolling Stone magazine. [9] The album was listed at number ten on PopMatters list titled "The Best Indie Pop of 2015". [10]

In August 2016, Remember Sports released a demo of their song "Makin It Right", which was featured on the Clearmountain Compilation Vol. 1. [11]

In November 2017, the band announced their name change from Sports to Remember Sports to avoid confusion with other bands, including the Oklahoma-based band, Sports. [2] [12] In 2018, the band released their third album titled Slow Buzz. [13] In 2020, the group contributed a cover of the song "Just the Girl" by the Click Five for Saving for a Custom Van , a tribute compilation celebrating the life of musician Adam Schlesinger.
