The Postelles
The Postelles are four-piece rock band hailing from New York City. They formed at Columbia Grammar & Preparatory School on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. The band released their debut album, The Postelles, on June 7, 2011. It was produced by Albert Hammond Jr. of The Strokes. The album was recorded at Quad Studios and Looking Glass Studios both in New York, and mixed by John O'Mahony in the Electric Lady Studios. The album was nominated for Best Rock/Hard Rock album in the Independent Music Awards.
The band has played at Bonnaroo Music Festival, Lollapalooza, and Iceland Airwaves. They have toured with Kings of Leon, The Kooks, Vampire Weekend, Fun., Interpol and The Kills.
Their second album, ...And It Shook Me was released on April 23, 2013. Allmusic journalist Stephen Thomas Erlewine called the album "a lively, bright collection of sharp pop" and says "what impresses isn't the hooks themselves but how the Postelles craft the riffs and melodies into songs, how they retain a brightness to their punch without ever seeming saccharine, how they seem to celebrate exuberance, not detachment."

by: PostellesAll your little problems? Well, they're overblown. And you think I'll solve them? Well I can't, and I won't.
So won't you take me out tonight? 'Cause I think you'll just stay in and cry, and I'll feel better than you've ever felt before.
But you say, "People, they always get lost at night," and I was just looking for all, not right. So don't you come knockin' down my front door 'cause I fell asleep on the dancefloor tonight.
So I move so quickly, yet I fall behind. But when things get heavy, I tend to just make them light.
Oh, now I'll do anything I'm told to except anything that I won't do and that makes everything we've ever done before.
But you say, "People they always get lost at night," and I was just looking for all, not right. So don't you come knockin' down my front door 'cause I fell asleep on the dancefloor tonight. Woah, no.
'Cause I fell asleep on the dancefloor. Fell asleep on the dancefloor. (x12) Oh, now I'll do anything I'm told to except anything that I won't do and that makes everything we've ever done before.
