Formation
The Blow was formed in Olympia, Washington, United States. Maricich's solo music project had previously been called Get the Hell Out of the Way of the Volcano. Dyne was influenced by her childhood classical cello training, while Maricich has cited English popular music acts such as The Beat, OMD, XTC, and Erasure.
The Blow is Melissa Dyne and Khaela Maricich. They make electro-acoustic pop music using a mothership of modular synths, ancient samplers and patched together audio gear, performing live with the same rig they use to compose and produce.
