A Great Big Pile of Leaves

After listening to the polished, unabashed indie pop that the group A Great Big Pile of Leaves creates, it comes as a bit of a surprise to find out the band calls Brooklyn home. The trio makes an extremely catchy style of unpretentious music that's a rare find in the New York City borough. They crank out memorable tunes that's free of any sort of art-snob pompousness; the group has managed to distance itself from its East Coast contemporaries and catch the ear of attuned listeners who are constantly on the prowl for new and interesting music. Formed in 2007, A Great Big Pile of Leaves plays music to for those who are looking for a band that's not afraid to indulge itself creatively.
