Self-described as "surrealist absurdist folk," the band formed in Santa Cruz, CA after singer-songwriter David Lowery of Redlands, CA, with his dry humor and valley-boy voice (sometimes confused for a faux English accent), and boyhood friends Chris Molla and Chris Pedersen disbanded Box of Laffs. Victor Krummenacher was added on bass and soon they were joined by Greg Lisher (guitar) and Jonathan Segel (violins, keyboards, mandolin). It was Segel's violin that would prove to be the band's hallmark at a time when alternative rock had yet to be invented, and indie-rock was still shy of roots music or traditional instruments. The 1985 re-release of their debut Telephone Free Landslide Victory made the Top Ten in the 1986 Village Voice annual Pazz and Jop Poll, as did their second album, II & III, and Camper Van Beethoven, both released in 1986...great for djs...Powered by eCRATER .
