Stumbling Upon A Mice Parade

Mice Parade is a band that has apparently been around for years - since 1998, if Wikipedia is to be believed. Regardless, I just stumbled upon them for the first time this past week, and I've been really impressed. Their upcoming album is What It Means To Be Left-Handed, and from what I've heard, it's a doozy. The lead track, "Kupanda" is a really sweet African-flecked tune. With bongo drums and some echoingly present strings, the song immediately conjures a pleasantly relaxing mood. This tune really reminds me of another song, but I can't quite figure out what it is. Regardless, I dig it.

Check it out below, along with the significantly weirder "Double Dolphins on The Nickel" from their 2007 self-titled album. And stay tuned for What It Means To Be Left-Handed, which drops in early September.
