This indie rock band started off with its 5 members: Jake Snider (Guitar, Lead Vocals), Dave Knudson (Guitar), Matt Bayles (Keyboard), Cory Murchy (Bass), and Erin Tate (Drums). They first made their appearance with the release of their album Highly Refined Pirates in 2002. 3 years later they released their second album Menos el Oso which hit #20 on the Heatseekers Music Charts. After the release of Menos el Oso, in January of 2006, keyboardist Matt Bayles left the band to be replaced by Alex Rose, a sound engineer who worked on Menos el Oso, who would also add back-up vocals to the band.
Their most recent album Planet of Ice was released in 2007. They released an Acoustic EP, cleverly titled Acoustics, in 2008. Their new album was finished with recording on September 3, 2009, but is expected to be coming this April 2010.
Here is their hit song from Menos el Oso, "Pachuca Sunrise"
