National Bird was a Sydney, Australia based indie rock band active from 1999 to 2007. It featured Dileep Krishnayya (vocals & guitar) , Tobey Doctor (drums), and either zero, one or two bass players. The band's sound was influenced by indie rock bands such as Dinosaur Jr. and Built to Spill and the live shows were known for being loud, raucous and often drunken and chaotic affairs also. The band was originally named Laissez Faire but they changed the name after a line-up change and due to the numerous other bands also using that name. Read more about National Bird on Last.fm.

Trampoline
From Vigo, Spain
First Twin Cities show since since April 17, 2009 • First Hexagon show
From last.fm:
Trampoline, a collection of D.C.-area talent featuring members of Chisel, Edsel, and Poole, as well as top-rank independent producers and the songwriting of mainman Pat Ferrise. While Dormer, the project's first release, concentrated on cleaned-up, radio-friendly pop, I Want One of Everybody makes a slight jump to cleaned-up, radio-friendly rock -- the record's sound is still far more mainstream than the work of many of the musicians involved (surpassing Dormer in terms of polish, focus, and pop organization)...
