A couple weeks ago, I told you all about a brilliant debut album from a group called NewVillager. Well… I’ve got anotherย new bandย for you! Channy Casselle of the just former Minneapolis group Roma Di Luna, has quickly gone on to form a new band called Polica, and the result is stunning. At this time, only two songs exist and the group just started performing live on Sept. 4th. You can check out both of the first editionย sweet sultry tracks below… and if they sound a little familiar, it might be because Gayngs member Ryan Olson produced them. Leave a comment and let me know what you think!

I saw Polica in December, as they opened up for Foster the People in Minneaoplis, MN. They were very well received and had many very listenable songs. The lead singer had a good stage presence, reminding me somewhat of a far distant Kate Bush gone punky/alt pop. I would pay to see them again, and probably will, since I am in Western Wisconsin! cheers~
