Red Umbrella is a band that I stumbled upon through the Dallas/Ft. Worth based Spin 180 podcast. If you have ever been drawn to the fantasticly unique voice of David Byrne (of Talking Heads fame) then you must check this band out. Their music is just brilliantly catchy, creative and did I mention creative? There are 80’s pop sounds, infectious grooves and modern rock sensibilities. All in one band. It is their first album, but if they keep going like this I hope it isn’t their last!
I want to buy their album on iTunes but I have been unable to get it yet, though their site says it is available there. I assume Sony will be getting it up soon. There are three tracks that you can listen to on their site which should warm you up 🙂
