Harper Blynn + Smoosh + Midnight Spin

CMJ Music Marathon. Peter Harper and Jason Blynn—formerly known as Pete and J—make supertight, supercatchy pop music that draws on Simon & Garfunkel's '60s folk-pop one moment, and Jellyfish in wig-out mode the next; their new album, Loneliest Generation, is well worth a listen. The band also rocks an awesome cover of "Under Pressure." Super well-matched support comes from teen Seattle pop duo Smoosh.
