Meet Pollens, Seattle's Dirty Projectors
Posted by Andrew Matson
Not that Brooklyn-based band Dirty Projectors has exclusive rights on Afrobeat-inspired indie rock, or combining wordless vocal counterpoint with trickling guitars — but the similarities are too striking with Seattle act Pollens not to mention. Check Pollens' freely downloadable songs at pollens.bandcamp.com and enjoy the videos above. Both have been available for months but I'm just getting hip now.
