Today's Featured Band -- French Films
Today's featured band is Helsinki, Finland's French Films, a five piece indie rock band that is just now appearing on radar screens in the United States. Their first single, "Golden Sea," from their 4 track EP of the same name, is fun, sunny and nothing you'd expect from a band that hails from Finland, a country known more for salted herring and Formula One World Champions than indie rock bands. Take a listen and tell me what you think.
Golden Sea is out now on Gaea Finland from Juno and Finnish online record shop Record Shop X on 12" vinyl (yes, you will need a turntable so go ask your parents' for theirs if you don't have one). Sorry, not available from US iTunes or Amazon for download yet.
