Pop quiz (literally): Which is cutest—this band's name, this band's songs, or this band's look? The correct answer is: It's a tie, of course. Their sweet lilting shaves any harsh edges off the indie pop that they do so expertly. Small wonder that they've gone from one self-released album to a media sensation in no time. Only problem is, in these times, fast-rising stars also meet quick plummets in careers, so let's hope this local crew is wise enough not to let their new rep go to their cute 'lil noggins.
