Small

Small (later known as Small 23) was an American indie rock band from Chapel Hill, North Carolina formed in 1991, consisting of ex-Superchunk drummer Chuck Garrison (also of Pipe), bassist Matt Walter and singer/guitarists Mike Kenlan and Eric Bachmann. Walter financed the band’s debut 45 as well as a split single with Pipe, attracting the attention of Rockville, which issued Cakes. The EP betrays an obvious Dinosaur Jr/Superchunk influence, boasting a pair of solid vocalists and a twin-guitar, rev-it-up style of scruffy, melodic pop-punk — a credible document of an eager young group.
Bachmann left just prior to the EP’s release in order to commit full-time to his other project, Archers of Loaf; he was replaced by Dave Hollinghurst.
