Dance Jam!

I picked up and fell in love with the Disco Biscuts after hearing their killer single "2 On Time" on One Track Mind. (Free download and review here! And bonus points to the reviewer for use of the word "doucheburger.") Since I found it on heavy rotation at home and in the car, I created a Pandora station and was shocked to find out that they are a Philly-based jam band (they even host their own festival!) that incorporates dance rhythms and beats into the jam formula. It's a brilliant idea that injects an element of energy, danger and (dare I say it) modernity into the jam formula. In fact, it's so smart that despite the inevitable miscues and flaws that come out of constant improvisation their live tunes are remarkably engaging. What the Pandora station has presented so far is a far cry from the polished pop of "2 On Time," but you can see it's genesis in their jams, and I'm looking forward to listening to them more.
