this swedish-formed band feels like a cross between Fun and a hipper, some hipper version of dashboard confessional if they had withstood the test of time. I know that describing a band like that may instantly detract a lot of people from giving it a chance. And yeah, maybe I'm a little bit ashamed of listening to a band described as futuristic dashboard, but sometimes there are songs so dang catchy that you can't really do much about it.
That's exactly what happens for me whenever I hear their anthematic (like unto an anthem) song On Our Way.
The rest of their jams are decent as well, with a few guilty pleasure gems. But this one just felt right to start the weekend. Here are a few others in case you liked the first one.
