N is for The Narcoleptic Dancers

THE NARCOLEPTIC DANCERS: is a half-brother and sister duo from the Netherlands. They have a kooky indie pop type sound, with nice melodies. Their trademark look is that they drape their hair over their eyes, kind of a cousin it look. Their first EP came out in 2010 titled 'Not Evident' and their album 'Never Sleep' came out last year.
My favourite song is the first one I heard by them called 'Not Evident'

N is also for NOUS NON PLUS: they are a french indie-rock band, based in New York City. They have been around for a while but only released albums quite recently. Their songs are really upbeat, and happy to listen to. They always put me in a good mood. Their first self-titled album came out in 2005, their second titled 'Menagerie' was released in 2009, and their latest titled 'Freudian Slip' came out last year.
My favourite song is called 'Ye-Ye C'est L'ete- Summer song' but I couldn't find that one anywhere but on spotify for those of you in the UK. So Here is 'J'en Ai Marre- Had Enough'

Love and Peace :)

B is for The Benders

Now I realize that in the UK the term "benders" is slightly rude. However they are actually a band. Hopefully one that not too many of you have heard of. Bear in mind they aren't to be confused with the 1960's garage band that have the same name.

My favourite song of theirs is 'Can't Wait'.
They have a very bluegrass sound, with the banjo, and some great harmonies. Their first album coming out in 2000 with title 'The Benders' and their second in 2001 called 'The Benders ||' and their latest being released in 2003 titled 'Mountain Radio'. You can listen to them in the links. It appears they have been around for longer than I thought. But I love their upbeat tracks, they just put you in a good mood.

The second band I wanted to mention, only have one track out at the moment, but I assume are planning on making a record, there isn't much information on them. They are called Brother/Sister and their song is called Opossum, is so catchy, and just sticks in your head!

And just for fun.... here is the old 1960's band's track called 'Can't Tame Me'. Which is actually not bad either. :D
Love and Peace.
