From Minneapolis

From last.fm:

The Big Strong Men’s songs straddle the line between partying and resignation, bursting at the seams with ambivalence. It’s rock & roll primed for dancing but built for transcendence. People have said they sound like the Band, Ben Folds Five, the Cure, Herman’s Hermits, the Old 97’s, Phoenix, Steely Dan, They Might Be Giants, and Wilco. It depends on when you’re listening. The band recorded a little EP called Don’t Go Too Far that was released November 2010. Read more about The Big Strong Men on Last.fm.
