• Whoa, what is this?

  In our continuing effort to try new things, here’s our latest: Band coverage! This time, SUNBEARS! completely ignores our rules on brevity, but because we like their pop-laden music so much, we learn not to be such sticklers. Want to see your band here? E-mail us or bug us on Twitter!

  
  

  Listen to them

  Q1: In 15 words or less, describe your sound: Interesting music with a bit of pop-sensibility.

  Q2: Name three influences that inspire you, with three words each on why they’re awesome:
  Scriptures/texts (any religious/philosophical scripture/text will do): To get inside the heads of thinkers/spiritualists long past no matter how bonkers or completely boring they may be.
  The outdoors: Because there’s always something more to look at.
  Real smiles: Because it’s always inspiring to witness someone being truly happy.

  Q3: What’s a recent song you’ve been digging? Write ten words explaining why:
  Animal Collective – “My Girls”: I love the beginning with the triplet synth part, how swimmy it all is, until the beat drops on brings it all together.

  Q4: In 140 characters or less, how do you use social networking to get the word out: Just using things like MySpace, Facebook and Twitter to communicate with people in an everyday sort of way. “What’s up? What’s happening!? These are my thoughts…”

  Q5: In 15 words or less, what’s next for you? To keep pushing forward. Writing more tunes, Playing more shows.  source
