criminal baby


All-girl, post-punk, late college years band who strive to be conventionally, hipsterly attractive in that disinterested way, seldom in pants.  Solemn beachy girls sound w/Hole-inspired passion manifest only in a revving of the occasional track.  Song topics include dog at vet, no dry cleaning, T.S. Eliot > ee cummings.  Two of the four band members are half-Asian.

chinese garage



Lo-fi minimalist sound, utilizing 2 random instruments (never an accordion), w/floral, choral vocals that break into spare, poetical incantations at varying intervals. Merch includes a tote bag w/coloring book and a small box of Prang crayons — make your own hurricane lantern covers.
