Beach Day
Hailing from the self-dubbed "Hollyweird," Florida, the trio Beach Day has a sound that has been heavily influenced by their surroundings. They make new music, but it is definitely old at heart. And it’s definitely sunny, but not without some murkiness. Kimmy, Natalie and Skyler met at a local show and quickly bonded over their love of 60’s Girl Groups, their dissatisfaction with their current musical endeavors and a common desire to be in a band that was purely about fun and making music without pretense.

Perfume
Perfume is the name of at least two bands. Perfume is a three person j-pop/electro-pop group from Hiroshima who debuted locally in 2001 and nationally in 2005. In 2001, three 11-12 year old girls from an Artist School formed a group together in their hometown of Hiroshima. Consisting of Ayano Ōmoto (Nocchi), Yuka Kashino (Kashiyuka), and Ayaka Nishiwaki (A-Chan). Because all three members had the Japanese character (香) for fragrance in their names, they named the group Perfume. In 2002, they released two limited edition singles only in Hiroshima, called “OMAJINAI★ペロリ” and “彼氏募集中”.

the belle hops
http://www.myspace.com/thebellehops In summer 2008 Jen though of starting a band which would be like the girl groups of the 50s and 60s but now, and with Scottish accents. She wrote some things and enlisted the help of Dave and Pete with making them into proper songs. Then nothing happened for months and months. But in March 2009 Jen thought of it again and got songs together with Pete's help and asked a bunch of people to join. They became known as the belle hops and had their first practice in May 2009.
