The charmingly titled Soccer Team first stormed onto the pitch that is the D.C. music scene in 2006 with their debut CD, Volunteered Civility & Professionalism. Made up of former The Most Secret Method and Beauty Pill member and Dischord Records employee Ryan Nelson and former Dischord employee Melissa Quinley, Soccer Team was a collaboration based around songs, ideas, and sonic architecture that took shape on four-track cassette and eight-track quarter-inch tape recordings beginning in 2005. Originally conceived as a purely home-studio-based creation, Soccer Team began live performances in the Washington, D.C., area in 2006 with Antelope's Justin Moyer sitting in on drums. ~ Christopher True, Rovi
