Formation and early years
The band formed in 2016 while the members were attending Brooklyn Friends School and Little Red School House in New York City. During high school, the band practiced and recorded material in the basement of Bassin's home in Fort Greene.[1] They independently released EP, their debut EP, in 2018, followed by an album, A Beautiful Memory, the same year, and a second EP, Bottomless Pink Lagoon, in 2019. All three of these releases have since been removed from streaming platforms.
As a few of the members had received acceptance letters to attend schools such as Oberlin College and the Berklee College of Music, the band had intended to break up once they graduated high school in 2020. Towards mid-2020, however, the band's self-produced demos attracted attention from several record labels, including 4AD, Fat Possum, and Sub Pop. Ultimately, the band signed with Partisan Records.[2]
2021: Projector
The band released their second album and label debut, Projector, on October 29, 2021. It was recorded by the band in Bassin's basement from late 2019 to early 2020, and mixed by Dan Carey. The album was met with some critical acclaim, obtaining a Metacritic average of 83 out of 100 based on eight critic reviews. The album had three singles released ahead of the release: "Disco", "Low Era", and "Projector".
2023–present: 3D Country, 4D Country, Hudson's departure, and Getting Killed
The band released their third studio album, 3D Country on June 23, 2023. It was produced by James Ford. The album had four singles released ahead of the release: "Cowboy Nudes", "3D Country", "Mysterious Love", and "I See Myself". On October 13, 2023, the band released the corresponding EP, 4D Country, featuring unreleased songs from the 3D Country recording sessions.[3] On December 22, 2023, Geese announced on social media platforms that guitarist Foster Hudson would be leaving the band to focus on his academic efforts, and that the band would continue as a quartet.[4]
Winter released his debut solo album, Heavy Metal, on December 6, 2024.[5]
In June 2025, Geese announced a North American tour for their upcoming album Getting Killed.[6][7] The first single, "Taxes", was released on July 8, 2025 and the album is set to be released on September 26th, 2025.[8][9]

Perspective
The band's sound has been compared to a wide array of other New York bands, as well as contemporary British groups such as Black Midi and Squid.[10]
Their music has been compared to "NYC guitar zone-out Zen masters like Television, the Feelies, and Parquet Courts; the early-’00s neo-new wave and dance-punk of The Strokes, The Rapture, and LCD Soundsystem; scads of art-spaz stuff from DNA to Deerhoof to Black Midi; and even a flash of prog touchstones like Yes and Radiohead."[10]
Describing the vocals of Cameron Winter on Projector, Jon Dolan of Rolling Stone said that Winter "can hoist his voice into a Thom Yorke-an falsetto, put on a posh pout à la Julian Casablancas or Ian McCulloch of Echo and the Bunnymen, or lapse into a stentorian yawp that brings to mind Mark E. Smith of the Fall or Arctic Monkeys’ Alex Turner. Sometimes you can hear it all cross-pollinating within the space of the same three-minute song, making for an album that rewards both short attention spans and deep listening."[10] Ian Blau of Rolling Stone said that "Winter shines throughout [3D Country]. Whether exercising his impressive falsetto on 'I See Myself,' or shape-shifting between a yelp, spoken word, and nasally chant on the standout track 'Mysterious Love,' or showcasing a more robust version of Alex Turner-style crooning on the eponymous single, '3D Country,' he contorts his voice to fit any set of lyrics or musical style."[11]
