I am sampling this band right now, a few hours before seeing them open for Mother Falcon at the 7th Street Entry and damn, my chamber-rock loving self, the more I hear of them, the more I enjoy. Lots of trumpet, strings, xylophone, narrative lyrics.
I guess they are a relatively new band from San Francisco who have a couple of releases under their belt. And they even covered a Hall & Oates tune, lol.
