About Me |
|
The Lisps are a New York-based assemblage of 21st century post-rock n' vaudeville auteurs. They write songs about science and love, space and pain, babies and documents and sometimes perform in costumes, with tap shoes and without microphones. The Lisps are the public/performative version of all the relationships you're struggling with. "Local coed pop group the Lisps gives quirky indie rock a real good name. Its debut self-released EP, The Vain, the Modest, and the Dead, is smart-assed and danceable, but with an affecting core of been-around-the-block melancholy." - Time Out NY The Lisps were born on a temperate September evening in a tiny hotel room in Amsterdam. When people listen to the lisps live they often say, "You guys are so cute" or "That was really loud but still so cute." Update: We've been working on being quiet more lately. Update: Ok We're kinda loud again. Sammy is 5' 4" Cesar is 6' 3/4" Eric is about 5' 10" Jeremy is probably 6' 1" 1 member is not a small boy, but actually a woman of average height with a killer bod. 1 member is about twice as attractive as the second most attractive member of the band and appoximately 4 times as photogenic. 1 member can play saxophone and 3 members can play guitar. 4 members can play "Love me Tender" on the guitar. 2 members were lovers but now just love each other. One member is temporarily living with his parents, and that's okay, we're not trying to judge. At least 1 member likes to alter the myspace bio as a way to entertain/humiliate/irritate 1-3 other members. At any given time, at least 1 member is in love with at least two other members. The Lisps are releasing their debut full length "Country Doctor Museum" in November. Get Ready!!! DOWNLOAD The Lisps on ITUNES |
