A band of maniacal musicians of the highest and most talented order.

If indeed two is company and three’s a crowd, then six must naturally be a circus troupe. The supernaturally fun musical phenomenon from Baraboo, Wisconsin is none other than PHOX. This band packs more ruckus and beatific arrangement into a song than is scientifically possible, or at least we thought not. The music is trippy and traipsing, with the vocals sung out like proclamations from on high. And thank you so very much Ms. Monica Martin for opening your mouth and letting fly the honey-spun melodies which are a captivating and gorgeously morass if I ever heard one. Never have I heard a voice in possession of both the light and airiness of hopefulness and the heavy laden anchor of sorrowful blue with worry lines aplenty; a voice of braided dichotomy.

The band’s 2013 release Confetti EP is a 6-song mini LP masquerading as an EP (it is so much more grandiose, sonically speaking, than a mere EP), and it is as adorable as calico space kittens decked out in Teletubbies onesies. After the jump click play and marvel as the music Crip-dances delicately upon your eardrum. In my opinion, if ever a band was destined for greatness this one is a sure bet. Peace.
