[from
Austin TX probably] I was annoyed at first with their youthful self-important
casual-hipster postering. They were basically gypsy-punk-lite with a
folky-campfire bent. If they were being serious, they started the band when
they were biking to Mexico and Canada together and “are still friends.” The
vocalizing and music was intentionally messy but the 8-band-member choruses
were engaging. I was especially charmed that their second song was “Daisy,
daisy, give me your answer true…” Some of the band members were of questionable
talent (spoon guy), but some had former band geek potential. (Photo courtesy of http://wisegeorge.blogspot.com/2009/04/parlor-in-hyde-park-near-ut-off-of.html)
