Aaron J. Tarnow, B.S.: Vocals, drums, keyboard, saxophone, proletarian lowbrow appeal, triangle. | | Influences | The Beatles, the Beach Boys, They Might Be Giants, Elliott Smith, Radiohead, the Pixies, Simon and Garfunkel, Bruce Springsteen, R.E.M., Love, Smashing Pumpkins, Spiritualized, Blur, OKGo, David Bowie, Cap'n Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters, Da Vinci's Notebook, Bill Chase, Of Montreal, the Zombies, Weezer, Chris Connelly, the New Pornographers, Beck, Nirvana, Harry Nilsson, the Eels, Dandy Warhols, Brian Jonestown Massacre, old Liz Phair, etc. | | Sounds Like | They Might Be Giants and Radiohead having a rumble in the alley behind the New York Philharmonic. Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel are the bookies. The Beach Boys sing in big, elaborate harmony while they watch because, let's face it, they're the Beach Boys. | | Type of Label | None |

| About Dan + Jean |
|
Ram Subramanian knows, like, four and a half languages and is dynamite in the sack. Aaron Tarnow once knocked down seventy-two burly men and a fully grown Bengal tiger with a single scowl. Together, they formed Dan + Jean, a band so fierce that both the Federal Bureau of Investigations and the Justice League of America have them on speed dial. If not for their damnably catchy melodies and deuced pretty harmonies, their powerful upbeat drive and their laid-back sentimental brake, their straight-ahead pop charisma and their unnecessarily erudite appeal -- if not, in short, for their rock and, lest we forget, for their roll, Dan + Jean would be just like all the other bands, only slightly worse. As it stands, there is nothing we can say of them to match what one of our friends said once: Dan + Jean aren't bad -- you might like them.
