Summer Listening: The Little Ones

Today was such a great day to live in the Northwest! Mt. Rainier stood proud and tall in the distance, crystal clear from where I was, watching over those fortunate enough to steer clear from work and enjoy the weather. On a day like this, you have to have the perfect music to keep the foot tapping and the head boppin' as the breeze pours in through the car windows!

Cue the Little Ones! After taking a break for a few years, veterans of rock Edward Reyes & Ian Moreno joined together once more in 2006 after their previous band Sunday's Best disbanded. The summer of 2002 saw the release of Sunday's Best The Californian, the 2nd and last full length release and a great addition to their catalog of rockin' tunes. Both albums were released on Polyvinyl Records (Headlights, of Montreal).

Last summer, the Little Ones released Sing Song, a sweet ep full of energy and catchy guitar. This spring the Little Ones were back at it with a second ep Terry Tales & Fallen Gates, a six song soundtrack for summer. Together with a few other b-sides released here and there (the original Sing Song has since been re-released with an extra track), we've basically got an albums worth to enjoy!

If you're looking for something upbeat that'll keep ya shakin' and a movin', head to iTunes or eMusic and treat yourself to something great! Even more fun, Jesse LeDoux, the same artist who has done work for the Shins, Bear Colony, Limbeck & more, lends his talent to a few singles and concert posters that I just have to get for my collection. Don't let another summer day pass without the Little Ones!
