No, not him. (you’re incorrigible!) It’s the name of a band based in Berlin, and though I’m more than a full year late on their album, Dreams (Link: iTunes), I feel the need to sing its praises anyway. Headed by Erlend Øye (also the winner of the world’s most Google-able name contest), TWBA is a four-man group that makes minimal, sincere, warm-sounding pop music. It’s so good, in fact, that I’m surprised it hasn’t been snagged yet for a Volvo commercial. Enjoy it while you can, and check out this video for the tune “Golden Cage” produced by L.A. based illustrator/director Geoff McFetridge:
