Just when you think you are on top of the scene and have discovered everything there is to discover it takes a nice note from a reader to alert you that you have missed a band (or twenty). The band this fan recommended was Tin Tin Can. Where has this band been? Their sound is a mixture of the layered vocals and organic nature of Animal Collective and the storytelling and edge of Cracker. They have released two eps, the most recent being The Devil and the Mockingbird released August 2009. Both eps can be downloaded for free from the band’s website. Tin Tin Can are my favorite discovery this week, and I apologize for not taking notice sooner.
Tin Tin Can will be playing at Beat Kitchen with 100 Monkeys on March 5th.
