Fun.

Fun, the band that is. And fun they are. Described as a "Pop Symphony" which is an incredibly fitting description. Members include Nate Ruess, formerly of The Format, Andrew Dost of Anathallo and Jack Antonoff of Steel Train. That should be reason enough to check them out. They are hard to guage from listening to one or two songs as their entire cd sort of swoons and swells. I have no doubt they will perform with a full symphony some day (including of course all manner of brass instruments). And it will be beautiful... and fun. "Fun" seems like a silly name, but I have used that word 5 times in this post while listening to their music, and I am desperatetly trying not to break a smile on this gloomy, frigid winter day.
