Based in Nashville, Tennessee, this four-member band consists of DJ Murphy, Ben Elkins and Aaron Distler, played earlier this year at mainstream music festivals South By Southwest and Bonnaroo. On August 10, 2009, the band's second release, "Cop Car EP", along with their quirky videos for songs like "Parade" gave the quartet a name for themselves. Citing the influence of such bands as Wilco, Coldplay and The BEatles, the band has produced a unique sound, intertwining guitars and horns, as well as an alluring stage presence.
