From last.fm:

Minneapolis-based indie power-pop band Seymore Saves the World is made up of pianist and lead vocalist Scott Hefte (Superdanger), bassist Shawn Neary (Ex-Tapes 'N Tapes), and drummer Nate Perbix. The band writes about the position of outcast teenager and nerd. Pitchfork describes the band's sound as "borrow{ing} a great deal from similarly wry piano-based 1990s pop artists such as the New Radicals or Fastball. However, no influence more blatantly shows through these twelve songs than Ben Folds." Seymore Saves the World on Last.fm.

From last.fm:

There's no guide or manual for what Mystery Palace does, no easy clockwork formula hidden in the Minneapolis based trio's agenda. Sequenced electronics plus live instruments offer a tough enough row to hoe on their own; when the former come from a pair of heavily circuit-bent Yamaha mid-pro keyboards, opportunities for disaster multiply exponentially. Luckily, so do opportunities for the sorts of disastrous successes the band enjoys regularly, largely thanks to founder Ryan Olcott's aptitude for riding his profusely toggle-switched brainchildren's outputs like a porn star.
