Details:
Odd Indie guitar pop with glockenspiel,squeeze box, violin thrown into an otherwise familiar guitar, bass, drums line up. Italia's voice and J.P. Cobb's guitar create some interesting tension. Italia's voice has a little Alanis meets Jewel influence but like the rest of the band, she also has her own unique style shining through. They say they have no idea of how to explain themselves. Others have used the words dreamy, poppy, schizophrenic and intense to describe their music. They do know though, that no matter what they say about their music, people are going to come to their own conclusions about what they sound like and who they are. The band came out of a conceptual idea more than it did out of boredom. All of the band members grew up in different parts of the country, but shared a similar love for music. Back in 1998, the members decided that it was time to start putting the songs together and get this band rolling. Chigger wanted to write songs that were honest, interesting, fun and a little different. They've always tried to hold fast to these ideals. It doesn't matter if it's the graceful and heartfelt "I Said I Said I Said" or the rockin "Sliding West" or better still, the sing along pop of "Noni", we know you are going to love this record.
