Missed in 2011
Normally I find myself frustrated with bands whose names bring up strange results on Google, but thankfully I know enough to put “Fun Band” in the search bar. Welcome to a wonderful little slice of indie done in a ear shakingly and retrotastically funderfull style reminiscent of the big stadium bands of the 70′s. It really sound like a lost ELO album at times, produced by Brian May, and run through a 1974 Stereophonic rock music maker. The band is based out of New York and is releasing a new album in February of 2012 which we are increasingly excited about. The big single out right now is “We are Young- feat. Janelle Monáe” and it’s worth a listen or ten. Pick up their first album “Aim and Ignite” on iTunes, but first check out the opening track, “Be Calm.”
