Finally, a band I can believe in!

So, the other night, I stumbled across this silly video called Banana Man. Check it out! I was immediately attracted to the opening cha-cha-esque rhythm and the Beatle-esque harmony...

That's right... I said Beatle-esque and cha-cha-esque! What a wonderful world are we living in!
The band is called Tally Hall, and they describe themselves as a "wonky rock band." The rest of their music, though not as danceable, is pretty solid. I recommend "Good Day" and "Ruler of Everything." Check out their listed musical influences on that last page! The Beatles is Number One! I knew I heard it! I'm going to buy their CD.

Also, before their rise to semi-popularity, these guys were just five kids at the University of Michigan: three pre-med students, a film major, and an English major. That's right, they are also intelligent men (see my interests).

They're fresh, energetic, creative, and seem to be having a lot of fun! And they are so cute with those colorful ties. If they continue that fresh sound, they could get really big....
...at least with people like me, who enjoy crisp, clever, uplifting music. I had almost given up on popular rock!
