New Band Crush: Oberhofer

I saw Oberhofer performing their new single "Away Frm You" on Letterman the other night and was absolutely intrigued.  One would think it was the singer's flashy zebra/leopard print shirt (I love it, not gonna lie).  Or, maybe it was the whistling (always catchy).  But, what really made them stand out was that they were playing a sweet ass XYLOPHONE.  When was the last time you heard a band use a Xylophone in a way that mattered?  Been a long time for me.

To recap:

Xylophone. 
Whistling. 
Sweet Prints. 
Catchy pop tune. 
Indie rock dance jam.
Done.
And, done.

Check out Oberhofer's new record Time Capsules II out March 26th on Glassnote Records.
