From last.fm:
Asobi Seksu was a dream pop band which formed in 2004 in New York City, New York, United States. The band consists of Yuki Chikudate (vocals, keyboards), James Hanna (guitar, vocals), Billy Pavone (bass) and Larry Gorman (drums). The band's name in Japanese consists of two words, "asobi" meaning "play" or "for fun", and "sekkusu" the Japanese transliterated word for "sex". Their sound has been said to draw influence from the shoegazing movement of the late 1980s to early 1990s, which was coined to describe the textured and effects-heavy sound of alternative rock in that era.

Loney Dear
From Stockholm, Sweden
First Twin Cities show since since May 10, 2009 • First Entry show • Fourth Twin Cities show on MN Live's calendar since March 16, 2007
From last.fm:
Loney, dear used to be the moniker of multi-instrumentalist and home-recording phenomenon, Emil Svanängen from Jönköping, Sweden. Svanängen slightly changed his artist's name in 2009, skipping the comma in Loney, dear. He is now recording and releasing music as Loney Dear. Both names exist on Last.fm, so (for as long as the two are not merged) please try to get this right: it differs per album! Loney, dear is the correct moniker for the following albums: The Year of River Fontana (2003) Citadel Band (2004) Read more about Loney, dear on Last.fm.
