SAU On The Lawn Spotlight...The Morning Benders...



(Via Wiki) The Morning Benders are an indie band from Berkeley, California.

In 2008, they released their debut album Talking Through Tin Cans on +1 Records. The band has toured in support of Broken Bells (Spring 2010), Grizzly Bear (fall 2009), The Kooks and Death Cab for Cutie (summer 2008), Ra Ra Riot (fall 2008), and has also played with Yo La Tengo, MGMT, Grand Archives, Yeasayer, Two Gallants, The Rosebuds, Au Revoir Simone, We Are Scientists, and White Rabbits. They also toured with The Submarines in 2009.

In December 2008, iTunes deemed Talking Through Tin Cans the best indie/alternative album of 2008. Earlier that year, they also received the honor of "Editor's Pick".

As you can see there's not too much on this band but the reason I chose them for the spotlight was hands down because of this 60's inspired Phil Spector (Esq) song called "Excuses Truly yours"..very beautiful, Very creative, very innovative!. Check em' out..
