Happy little band I just came across

Their new album is "In Case We Die"- just came out this past April.

8 Australians

I got the list of instruments they use from the same site I got the pic. It goes like {{glockenspiel, trombone, trumpet, tuba, recorder, clarinet & finger clicks}}.

I'd start out by listening to Imaginary Ordinary, Scissor Paper Rock, In Case We Die (part 1-4), One Heavy February, and Do the Whirlwind.

See ya

Cool website, letting you sample every song on the album.

Nice variety of instruments to create such an uplifting sound. Reminds me of the happiness of Polyphonic Spree speeded up and without sounding like a choir. I like it, very much.

Fully this band is like an alt. bomb. i absolutely love them hav seen them live, their music is soo great its like sooo energetic u cant help but want to jump around, i also love their vocal range hw they can go from a singing whisper to a right out there loud as chorus. their live show was excellent they were on this smallish stage but still managed to move around n create a rweally vibrant atmosphere, listen to its 5 if u want a pick up, to get u in a better mood, yes i am in love with them lol

What a fun band. I prefer Fingers Crossed to the album they released last year, though.

Don't have fingers crossed yet, but on list to get. VERY good album and I have 3 songs on rotation I like them so much...

I love them, theyre my favorite indie band. Theyre really talented musicians, I hear they all play more than one instrument. In Case We Die was good but I definitely like Fingers Crossed better =).

yet another boring typical indie band

All I've heard from them is In Case We Die and I loved it. It was new and refreshing to say the least.
