About Me

Josh and Irene met via Craigslist. They found Nathan on BandMix. Or maybe it was Forming Bands. One of those. Ali also came via Craigslist. So I guess thanks are due to Craig.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 6/14/2005
Band Website: You are looking at it.
Band Members: Irene (Violin); Josh (Piano, Baritone Uke, Mandolin, Vocals); Nathan (Vocals, Mandolin, Guitar); Ali (Vocals, Banjo, Drums)
Influences: Bartok, the Cure, Depeche Mode, Magnetic Fields, the Police, Roxy Music, Shostakovich, the Smiths, Tindersticks
Sounds Like: "Original acoustic music that is classically moody, boldly brooding and slightly atmospheric. Think Elvis Costello meets Morrissey meets Dmitri Shostakovich."Someone also said that we sound like Joe Jackson. We can live with that. We've also heard comparisons to the Arcade Fire and Pink Martini. Keep'em coming!
Record Label: The big contract should be any day now.
Type of Label: None
