The Like

The Like was an alternative rock band from Los Angeles, California. Its final lineup consisted of Z Berg (vocals and guitar), Tennessee Thomas (drums), Laena Geronimo (bass), and Annie Monroe (organ). The band released three extended plays (EPs) and two studio albums.

History

Formation and early years

The Like were formed in September 2001 by Z Berg (vocals/guitar), Charlotte Froom (bass/vocals) and Tennessee Thomas (drums) at the ages of 15, 15 and 16, respectively. All three are daughters of music industry veterans; Berg's father is former Geffen Records A&R exec/record producer Tony Berg, Froom's father is producer Mitchell Froom and Thomas' father is Pete Thomas, longtime drummer for Elvis Costello. From childhood, Froom, Berg and Thomas were immersed in classic rock, and all three took piano lessons before teaching themselves their current instruments.

They formed when the parents of childhood friends Thomas and Froom learned that Berg had been writing songs and showed interest in forming a band. Froom learned bass two weeks before joining, and the three began working together, getting fast results. Thomas's mother came up with the name in recognition of how often the girls used the word "like".

PLAYLIST TIME:

Under The Paving Stones

by: The Like

Somewhere was a different kind of time
When children weren't too bored to
Lose their lives
For change and loss
And star-crossed love and lies
But who today can find that kind of time?
Cuz nothing's still so urgent to inspire
A person to regain that kind of fire
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain
And only nothing left to lose
Haven't you heard?
You talk to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do
I had always thought it was a crime
To still own slaves within such modern times
But who am I to question such a life?
When I still own my own place in the line
And what could make a person wish to fight
When dazzling lights have overwhelmed his sight
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain
And only nothing left to lose
Haven't you heard?
It's up to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la la

A person to reclaim that kind of fire
And hey, haven't you heard?
You have the right to make a move
You've everything to gain
And only (ornament) left to lose
Haven't you heard?
It's up to everyone to prove
A leader only leads when no one else knows what to do
Ooh ooh
