the submarines

Yesterday I received a reminder email about the release of the new album from The Submarines.  Yay!  I love this band.  A few years ago J (hubby*) went to see Aimee Mann in concert and she had an amazing opener.  Turned out it was this group, The Submarines.  I went home and immediately downloaded one of their albums and fell in love.  I also discovered they were the music of the iPhone 3 commercial - very cool (they ended up with their music on the 3GS commercial too).  Their music is fun and whimsical, varies piece to piece and the members seem like really cool, nice people.  We ended up seeing them a few months after that on tour and will again at the end of the month (check out their site for upcoming dates).

Since I was disconnected from technology the past couple days, I'm off to download now! 
*by the way, in case you were curious, J-bug and J do not share the same name - just happen to have the first same initial.
