Trouble Books

Knitting together found sounds, quirky synthesizers, and twinkly organic instrumentation, Trouble Books combine eclecticism (something along the lines of the Microphones and the Books) with dreamy indie pop sensibilities (bringing to mind acts like Lullatone and Tenniscoats). Keith Freund and Linda Lejsovka, who are married, formed Trouble Books in Ohio in the early 2000s; they recruited the help of their friends in recording Trouble Books' first albums, with Mike Tolan (talons') often filling in as a third member of the band. Trouble Books' debut album, The United Colors of Trouble Books, recorded in late 2007, was released on Bark & Hiss Records in 2008, and an EP, Endless Pool, was released the following year. The group's sophomore full-length, Gathered Tones, was released on Bark & Hiss and Own Records in the spring of 2010.
