Sounds Like
Jangly guitars, boy/girl vocal harmonies, lovelorn, sometimes psychedelic, pop in the sense that it's catchy. A little bit crunchy, a little bit rock and roll.
We write songs. That's what we do. Indie rock? maybe. Pop? possibly. totally sweet? you tell me. John plays drums. Suzi plays bass and sings. Nathan plays guitar and sings. We, The Pseudo Dates, dig on harmonies and raunchy garage pop. We have a CD, "because we love you." available now! it has 6 songs. we are very tired and broke from being on tour in the northwest. We wish we could have been there at the International Pop Underground Festival. I was like nine, though, and probably wouldn't have appreciated it.
Everybody's talking about...Pseudo Dates press and more:

great show tonight guys i'm really glad i was finally able to make it, i wish you had more under 21 shows. i still have a couple years. Loved it though! :-)
You fine folken. . .thanks for coming out the playing a show with us. Sorry if there was some weird vibes with our constituents, but every loaf of bananna bread is a little soggy. All the best on the rest of your tour!
P.S. You guys put on a very tight performance, and us Clams were impressed by the your polish.
Hi Nate and Suzi and John! Thanks for the CD, it's so good! Especially Sleepy Shoes. And Tambourines and Toasters. And pretty much all of them. Good work, and drive safely!
Let us know if you need someone else to play that CD release party. We'll probably all have to come by anyway and pool together some cash to own a communal PseudoDates CD, so if we can play too, sweet. If not, well, I guess we'll just drink. It don't make no nevermind to us!
Have fun on the coast (as if you needed permission)!!!
