Givers (stylized as
GIVERS) are an
indie pop group from
Lafayette, Louisiana. The band is made up of
vocalist and
percussionist Tiffany Lamson, vocalist and
guitarist Taylor Guarisco,
drummer and vocalist Kirby Campbell,
bassist and guitarist Josh LeBlanc, and
flautist, saxophonist, and
keyboardist Nick Stephan. The band's origins date to
Hurricane Katrina in 2005, which displaced Lamson and Guarisco from their
New Orleans apartment and school, leading them to return to Lafayette with little to do. The duo began playing music together, and they recruited the other members shortly before a last-minute performance at a local pub in 2008. The band came together as the result of the unplanned, improvised jam.
