Stamen and Pistils May 30, 2007

Coming out of Washington DC, Stamen and Pistils come with a sound very atypical of what is commonly expected to come out of the city. The music is largely acoustic based pop, filled out with programmed beats and synths to form a sort of controlled chaos. While recognizing and respecting the long standing music traditions of the city, Stamen and Pistils aim to create something new and sincerely their own -- a highly textured sonic pallet of fuzzy pop, deconstructed just enough to remain consistently innovative.
