Mariachi music & car engines end up on recordings while the boom boom radios ghetto blastin' drake & the boys. Fluttering melodies with tambourines & handclaps live in small spaces on lofty tv couches, the modern lovers, the daytraders........
"... In thrall to the likes of The Replacements, The Lemonheads, The Byrds and even Dylan. Man, we love that shit. Why? Because there's only two months 'til summer.

Compared to the small, hushed strains of "Big Okie Dokie," their new songs, like "Modern Lover," are built to rock The Pond without losing their uber-indie cred. Kevin's vocals are the American, sweeter, less monotone version of Mark E. Smith—which, ironically, make them sound nothing like Mark E. Smith if that makes sense. Gentler than The Replacements, less drugged out than The Lemonheads, CoCo B's wear their fuzzed-out pop anthems on their sleeves....." - 3 HIVE
I know this seems like a wack idea, i'm super poor, is there anyway I canpromo you to get a cd instead of money? I can pass out flyers or pass out samplers, stickers.
you're welcome (: I put one of your songs on my page and it seriously makes me feel really happy, it's pretty rare these days to find a song with that affect.
