tgiff: Volume 6
THE SCOOP: Summer Edition, post-Mamma Mia!

PAS/CAL: This Detroit-based band has been scattering their EPs around for years, and lucky attendees of their concerts described them as “all dressed up in deceptively catchy and meticulously arranged tunes with hooks that would make Johnny Marr jealous and turn Serge Gainsbourg’s head.” A perfect recipe for unabashed twee under the cloudy skies of summer in San Francisco.
Think: Of Montreal + The Zombies + Final Fantasy
Latest Album: I Was Raised on Mark, Matthew, Luke, & Laura
PAS/CAL – Summer is Almost Here
PAS/CAL – You Were Too Old for Me
Why pay at all when you’re at Payless?
