I saw him/them as the opening act for bishop allen @ middle east downstairs. They/him were fantastically fun. Danced awesomely, music'ed awesomely. And yeah he looks like your typical hippie/hipster whatever the eff you want to name it indie dude, but he is that in the sense that he is the legitimate type. IMHO.
I first digged 'bad day.' it had such a fun beat, but the lyrics are too fun. i show:
i hope that the last the page of your 800 page novel is missing
and i hope that it rains if you leave the window down on your red mustang
'cause everyday ought to be a bad day for you
and if you drop your keys i hope there's a sewer somewhere very nearby
i hope that your team lost; i hope your new girl takes off with a new guy.
(old version: and if you're out of clean sheets i hope your new girl takes off and it's clear why)
'cause everyday ought to be a bad day for you
and i would like to be your girlfriend so i could dump you
and i would like to be your garbage man so i would never have to pick up your trash again
maybe you should wonder why your apartment is always so empty
well i hope you get locked out of that apartment and have to call jenny
'cause everyday ought to be a bad day for you
but i'm sorry if it ever is

I hope to see them/him again. The guitarist that i couldn't tell was male or female for a while was cute. not that that's the reason i would want to see them again.
i really just love his songs. except 'lights on' but who knows. i may just grow to love it. love's funny that way, yah?
we could be up in the CLOUUUDS.
