Wow, okay, this band Oberhofer are so awesome. I’m literally gonna copy paste their bio from their Facebook page, because it’s brilliant:
When your songs are too big to be contained: form a band. Maybe call it after your family name because you like the way it sounds (shit, if it worked for Bon Jovi then who’s to argue). Record those songs in the basement of your parents house in Tacoma. When that burns down, shake it off and move to New York. Find a new band to play with, start working on a symphony (no really, do it), mix your newfound formal training with the noisy exuberance of youth. Get raucous.
So that’s how they are. Watch this video. Go see this band at Savannah Stopover. They are headlining the opening night kickoff show at Telfair Square with Pond and Dinosaur Feathers. Sounds like an amazing show.
