Born when one third of now defunct The Mobius Band (singer/programmer/ guitarist Ben Sterling) met Melissa Metrick and Ian Ainley, Cookies is a band from New York City specializing in popular music – at least that’s how they present themselves on their own website. Their songs have definitely a poppier and sunnier approach than the Mobius Band’s ones, mostly because of Melissa’s radiant vocals, but also the experimentation in the arrangement department is curbed to a minimum.
