Hardman
Hardman are Jeff Hardman (Silver City, New Mexico) and Jay Hardman (Berlin, Germany).
'Pop psychedelia' describes a good part of the surround sound of their debut album 'Shirts and Pistols', which is is out since July 03 on Popup Records, EFA. Go hear it in full length in our mp3 section. By the way: Random track selection is recommended, the album swings in pretty diverse ways...
