After writing about Polyenso on Thursday, one of my friends commented saying that they reminded him of the band Half Moon Run.

Unfamiliar with Half Moon Run, I took a listen...

...and have then had their album, Dark Eyes, on play all weekend. 

"Call Me in the Afternoon" is catchy and high-energy (do you see those high-knees?!) with a balanced blend of the ingredients that always reel me in:

• Killer harmonies
• An eerie minor key piano
• A driving drum part (though other times it's a drum part of subtle punctuation that does me in)

This song is a new addition to my Favorite Drum Songs, which will be this week's theme, so stay tuned! 

In the meantime, I leave you with one of my other personal Half Moon Run favorites, "She Wants to Know."

I love new tunes.
