Baron Boombox: Waiting for a War – The Morning Benders

Although they released their first full length album in May 2008, The Morning Benders have already performed with such notable acts as Death Cab for Cutie, The Kooks and MGMT. This Berkeley-based indie quartet crafts summery songs that keep tough topics light and gives them a sense of optimism. The Morning Benders are noticeably influenced by The Beach Boys and early Beatles, but they have a sound that is their own. Playful piano, tamborines, jangly guitar and Chris Chu’s vocals make their 60s-influenced pop songs catchy, but not devoid of deeper meaning.

Listen to the song here!

    I would recommend just changing to html mode and adding the audio embed file into the source code of the post.

    Well, the point of not adding the song to this is to get you to go to the Baron Boombox.

    I think you should exclude the Baron Boombox entries from the main news ticker. The Boombox isn’t news, and it’s updated every day. I think we should have a separate section for it on the side of the website.
