Went to see the Apples in Stereo at the Indie Pop Festival the other night. Apples were cool but even BETTER was this band from Vancouver, B.C., called The Salteens, a five piece, 4 guy/1 girl, keyboarded, harmonic sugar pop explosion. Lots of "ooh wahs" and "doo doos." They even have a song called "Bubba Da." If it's your kind of thing, definitely check them out if they show up in your town. They're going to be in Toronto, Ontario, Arlington, Va., and Brooklyn in the first week of June.
