Best Move is comprised of Kris Anaya, Joseph Davancens, and Fernando Oliva. The trio formed in 2019. Inspired by the likes of Randy Newman, Brian Wilson, and Harry Nilsson (taking their new band name from the latter’s song of the same name. Anaya took inspiration from film and TV soundtracks, citing specifically the niche rock takeover of post-2000 era films by directors like Michel Gondry, Sofia Coppola, and Wes Anderson, he worked to inject the new material with that same sense of visual emotion.

Best Move release its debut, the Mirror Image Twins EP on May 7 via Park The Van. Their latest single “Invisible Sigh” is about the COVID-19 pandemic. “The song’s lyrics deal with the mental and physical toll that death can have on a human being, and the hardships of not being able to be near people during this terrible time of grief,” Kris explains. “I wrote the song early in the pandemic. It was something that I kind of needed to write. The ability to connect with people through a song was something that was on my mind during this process. I felt that music is the greatest unifier during difficult times.”
