I like this group but nobody I know has heard of them. Anyone else?

I looooooooooved \*Quiet is the New Loud[/]. Haven’t heard the new one, but if it’s anything like Quiet, it should be good.

I think I might have grown out of that mood, though. Now I only wanna dance!

Yep. Not a huge fan, but I love what I’ve heard.

I checked them out on the recommendation of Curt Smith, and they’re not bad. Not my usual flavor, perhaps, but definitely something to listen to when I want to relax a bit and groove to a more mellow sound.

The **jillelope** has one of their albums (something about a street?). I haven’t listened closely, as it’s a little too mellow for my tastes, but I’ve found it very pleasantly mellow. Nice harmonies, etc.
