Bishop Allen
Label: Dead OceansGenre: Pop
So, it's been a few years since Clay posted Bishop Allen, and they've had an ambitious EP project (one per month of 2006) and a new album, The Broken String, from 2007. What I really want to know though is, Clay, what ever happened with Marci? I mean, did she hook you up with any good music? Or was it more like a fleeting moment of common interest? Anyway, the links from your old Bishop Allen post were dead, so here are some new ones. I could listen to "Click Click Click Click" all day.
Clay's original post: 11/06/04
Marci's her name. I think the first thing she said to me was along the lines of, "Do you like good music?" That led to a CD exchange: her Bishop Allen Charm School to me, my Postal Service Give Up to her. I also threw in my Christmas 2003 mix for good measure, just to see if she liked good music. Now I swear Bishop Allen has been used on some Fox and/or WB show, you know at the end the voiceover says "Tonight's episode of the 'OC' featured music by...(then lowering his voice an octave)...Bishop Allen." I know the natural reaction is to immediately reject all bands featured on the OC, but please, I ask you, give Bishop Allen a chance. Hmmm, when's the season premier of the 'OC'?
