They play punk rock power pop, but also like to play video games, watch movies, read (comic books), color, play with toys, eat (poorly), bathe (with each other), and consume copious amounts of alcohol (as mentioned, they need positive role models). Applecore resides in Bloomington, Indiana and have jobs which they all hope to quit. They drive a van that scares children and write music that scares adults.

Hookers for Jesus

Hookers for Jesus is a Bloomington, IN based singer-songwriter. The term comes from the female members of the Children of God church who practiced flirty fishing. Flirty fishing refers to Matthew 4:19 from the New Testament in which Jesus tells two fishermen that he will make them "fishers of men"; cult leader David Berg extrapolated from this that women in his movement should be "flirty fishers" (also called "bait" or "fisherwomen"); the targeted men were called "fish". The cult published several documents with exact instructions.

Ghost Mice

Ghost Mice is a two-piece folk-punk band that hails from Bloomington, IN. Ghost Mice was created from the ashes of former pop-punk bands The Devil Is Electric and Operation: Cliff Clavin. Chris Johnston (aka Chris Clavin) and Hannah who played guitar and bass respectively for OP:CC and TDIE, decided to make their act acoustic so they could tour more easily and play almost anywhere.
