About Me


"Hey guys, maybe you're wondering why we don't have many dates up? It's because we're bunkering down and recording a new album. We're also rehearsing a new BIG BAND, with lots of people. Usually it's just two of us, but we'll be expanding for a bunch of shows. Also, we're also planning a big release tour for our first album for midway through next year. We'll be coming to the US, the UK and Europe. Can't wait!" -mark and johanna

-iheartcomix
“Little Pictures create some of the most inspiring, self-aware and genius melodies we've heard all year.”
