Has anyone heard of these guys?

I was at Sephora yesterday when I heard "Young Folks" over the speakers. I conned a salesgirl into going to find out the band & song name. Haven't done any research on this band/musician(s) yet... thought I'd check here first.

Poppy, upbeat song. Very catchy, very cute.

nevermind. it's peter, bjorn, and john.

their myspace page

Weird, the song doesn't really sound the same now. What a biter.

I wonder if the salesgirl was mad at me for asking her to look at the title because I don't think this is the same song. I should go back and kick her.

I put a song on a mix a little while back. I think "Young Folks" is the catchiest song, but there's some funny remixes of it floating around. The blogs are nuts about these guys, so I'm sure a hype machine search will result in most of their album for you.

The album was okay, but "Young Folks" is seriously the best thing anyone's done in forever.

I really like the album (Writers Block) and you know what 'Young Folks' isn't even my favourite on it.
