  • The name is meant to be vague. ... We were either gonna be called Already Islands or Future Shoes. Because, seriously, you don't know what future shoes look like, but you know you'd want a pair! . So after deciding Already Shoes was a bad name, we combined them to Future Islands. That's the boring truth, sorry! (en)
  • I don't think that any band really escapes the genre tag. ... We just gave ourself a tag that made sense to us just so we wouldn't be put in another category. We started calling ourselves post wave back in 2003 and it was kind of a joke ... We definitely don't want to be tagged as anything because we want to be open to as many people as possible. (en)
  • I've always considered myself a singer third on the list—I'm a writer, I'm a performer and I'm a singer. I don't really think of myself as a musician. Those are the things that are most important to me—that I perform well and write something that will stand some test of time and be there for people. (en)
