Jazz Hands

Jazz Hands is a post-punk band from Northwest Ohio. They sound like a panda bear spaghetti birthday party, that has a not funny clown but you're kinda just laughing at him, and everyone got you pretty sweet gifts like comics/records/books/video games (even though you're totally an adult and you don't really care) and of course mom made you triple chocolate cake and got you peanut butter and chocolate ice cream to go along with it and she put chocolate covered strawberries on top just like she has for the past 6 years or so and the party is so indescribingly awesome...
