WiFi is the best luxury you could ever have on tour, cause even though you're stuck on a bus or in some part of town that doesn'...

Have you seen this site before? I stumbled upon it today and helped the little guys meet up with the rest of the band. Interesting technique, to get people to hear tracks off your record (Together We're Heavy), why not use a game?

  • Artist:
  • Album:
    The Beginning Stages Of...The Polyphonic Spree
  • Track:
    Light & Day / Reach For The Sun

At last I've replaced my copy of "The Beginning Stages of..The Polyphonic Spree." I had a copy a while back and then had a hard drive go wonky and when reloading iTunes from the backup one of the disks was bad and I lost several things.If you've never heard them, I'll give you some idea what they're like. Imagine ELO with a chorus and a theremin and throw in the flute from Jethro Tull and you...

Polyphonic Spree Rocks the Vic

My wife and I caught The Spree this past week at the Vic in Chicago. The show started at 6:30 and We didn't get there until like 7:30. Unfortunately we missed the Redwalls who are some local fellas that grew up in Deerfield (a northern suburb). Even more unfortunately we made most of Rooney's set. Sometimes (this being one of them) I pretend to imagine how bands meet and decide that they ar...

The Polyphonic Spree are better live than they are on album
over 2 years ago

And I didn't think that was possible.Saw this show back in July. But, I'm trying to fill in my entire summer. So. You know. Bare with me.I don't know if I can fully ever encompass how fantastic that night was. The Polyphonic Spree is a band that my friend Melissa introduced me to, what? 5 months ago, maybe?, and, we're all so glad she did. Brooke and I saw them tonight. Oh man. Soooooooo good. ...

What a week! First Crowded House, then the Polyphonic Spree. I had only glimpsed this 20+ piece rock orchestra once before, at Coachella years ago, when they were still wearing their Godspell-style white robes and mostly singing songs about the sun and how reaching for it made them smile. I caught maybe the last five minutes of that show and was like, "What the hell?" I got their first album, l...

Stream Polyphonic Spree’s Nightmare Before Christmas cover
about 1 year ago

Whoa baby. This is one of the weirdest covers the Polyphonic Spree have ever done — and they've done more than their fair share. You might remember that, back in August, I said that the Spree would be contributing a cover of a song from the Nightmare Before Christmas for a compilation. I won't share [...]

Finally throwing my two cents in on the big Chicago festival. It was a great long weekend with some truly magical musical moments.The first was early Friday when the Polyphonic Spree and their attack of warmth and loved filled Grant Park. An amazing thing to see live, if you ever get the chance to, check them out! Tim Delaughter and his band even have a way of making Kurt Cobain lyrics sound ho...
