DANDY WARHOLS - if you can get past the name.....


The Dandy Warhols are an alternative rock band formed in Portland, Oregon by Courtney Taylor-Taylor (formerly Courtney Taylor) (vocals, guitar), Zia McCabe (keyboard), Peter Holmström (guitar), and Eric Hedford (drums). When Hedford left in 1998, Taylor-Taylor's cousin Brent De Boer replaced him as drummer. The band's name is a play on the name of pop artist Andy Warhol.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ANOTHER GREAT EXPORT FROM PORTLAND

I thought Portland was just known for great independent beer. Turns out these guys are also known for kicking out a great tune or two from the Dandy Warhols. I didn't know Portland had the imagination to crank out a band like the Warhols. I must admit I've admired these guys as soon as I got a hold of their second album.

They are fairly prolific too. They have been turning out an album every year on the average throughout the 2000's. And thats a great thing because these guys have a lot of musical fuel built into their songs. I never get tired of listening to them.

The WB network seems to agree with me on this one. The "Bohemian Like You" song has been featured on a lot of promo clips where it serves as the music bed.
