A lot of pop and Brill building. And then a little dirt. And faith that there's something underneath it all.
We are from everywhere. And nowhere! This is us: Ash lives in NYC and works as a living mannequin. Ash likes to dance dance revolution. Nunu and Andrew are in Texas doing architectstuff; Nunu designed our first logo and demo album boxes, and Andrew is our sarcastic mascot. John travels, wears a suit, and sells his soul to buy music equipment and videogames. Ivan is our former member-at-large in Tokyo and Taiwan, we think he's a drawer/modeler but we're really not sure.
We make pop music that comes from our many influences--music that is pop but like furniture too and buildings and cities, especially cities. We hope you like some of it, if not all of it. And if you don't like any of it, well, hopefully you don't hate it. And if you hate it, well, there's no pleasing everyone. And if everyone hates it, well, at least we all still have dayjobs for now.
We have an album out called "Teardrop Sweetheart" on Tomlab, and it's sad happy. Mense Reents produced it. (He's amazing.) And his friends helped. (They are awesome too.)
Our album came out on 6/19 in the States! Woohoo! And you can click on the picture below if you'd like to get it in the US:
If you'd like to be our friend, send us a message and tell us something!

When you guys comin' to the east coast of Canada? It's not far from NY annnnnnddddd it's beautiful in the summer. Come play in the Maritimes (ie Fredericton, NB; Moncton, NB; Halifax, NS)!
if you do it while listening to teardrop sweetheart i find it applies an electrifying feeling to the body. compensates for city pollution and the weariness of country life, prolongs your life. it 0wns you
