[glow=red,2,300]BO PEPPER[/glow] I came across this band back in January after they were featured on www.perezhilton.com and ever since then I have been hooked. They are an unsigned band from the UK who have been compared to The Gossip, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Cardigans, early No Doubt. I have no idea what the band members look like because they use an adorable sock puppet in their videos lol. So far these are the songs that can be listened to on their myspace page (www.myspace.com/bopepper) and their official site (www.bopepper.com): Buses I'm Bored Goodcopbadcop Blinkandyou'llmissit Change Love or Die Falling into Place I swear "Buses" is so catchy I could definitely see it becoming a hit on US radio! I hope they put out a CD soon and eventually tour America. But please check this band out if you like catchy pop/rock! "Buses" can be purchaed on itunes, it was on some UK Coca-Cola Compilation. The band also has songs up on this UK indie digital store called www.indiestore.com/bopepper

The band is currently pitching to be featured in Blender. This would be great US exposure :)

***WOW- OUR SONG, "BUSES", TO BE USED ON A COCA COLA AD! Current mood: geeky
Mental eh? Our song, Buses, is to be used on an online ad campaign for Coca Cola. It will appear all over the web on websites such as Nme.com and Q mag etc and is gonna propel us to stardom in Blackpool and beyond. YaY! I really hope it does summat to lift miserable will's mood. Check out our pics and that on our Road To V webpage- Will's misery is oft documented there! So what else to tell ya? Ooh, lots and lots more amazing things we can't tell you about just yet - its all boss though!

Apparently Sony Pictures have seen their quirky videos and are rather impressed and currently in talks with the band about a future project. Also Bo Pepper may be featured in an upcoming issue of Blender magazine for some US promo.
I really think the band is on the right track and will eventually breakthrough!
