[Indie] Electric Guest- Awake

Electric Guest, a band handpicked by super-producer Danger Mouse as a pet project, have been starting to make some waves in the L.A music scene, playing a few live shows and getting a little airplay on local college radio. Their sound is strikingly similar to that of Broken Bells, Danger Mouse's critically acclaimed collaboration with James Mercer of The Shins, but it's unique enough to stand on its own. "Awake" is driven by a fat bass line and the chorus is filled with vocal harmonies of what sounds like a choir of indie-girl angels. Interestingly enough, the bands lead singer, Asa Taccone, wrote the track for SNL’s “Dick in the Box” skit featuring Justin Timberlake.
