I recently received two Baby Calendar LPs to review. Baby Calendar are a three piece band from Miami, USA. The two LPs I received were 'Fifteen Year Old Sneakers' (self released, 2005) and 'Gingerbread Dog' (Happy Happy Birthday To Me Records, 2006). They have one other self released LP 'Your Move' (self released, 2004) which is currently not available. The band also won the Tweenet 2006 poll for best new band and I can certainly hear why.
This is good American indiepop/powerpop, recalling bands like The Besties and All Girl Summer Fun Band. There are nice vocal harmonies from singers Tom Gorrio and Jackie Biver. The self released CD is a little rougher around the edges and slightly harder in sound but both CDs are good enough. A band I'd like to hear more from. According to their My Space the band are working on a new EP. The three piece are completed by Arik Dayan and indeed, Tom and Arik have a side project called Call It Radar and their sound is a little more indierock orientated.
Baby Calendar - Traffic in the Tropics (from Gingerbread Dog)
Baby Calendar - Fifteen Year Old Sneakers (from Fifteen Year Old Sneaker, was that obvious?)
Head over to the bands website where you can download a couple more songs from the LPs.
