Farmertan

Rock and Roll/Power Pop/Garage/Indie
Farmertan is three piece indie band with an almost 20+ year history- an enviable resume, performing with bands such as Luna, Mike Watt, Archers of Loaf, Velocity Girl, Apples in Stereo, and Velvet Crush, among others. They have championed a DIY ethic allowing them to write, record and self-release their music. Their online presence has garnered impressive exposure at home and even more notably overseas. They've been involved with website www.jamendo.com, which has licensed their music in independent films, most notably Serbian film Tilva Ros (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1516593/) , an award winning Australian short film named Parrot (http://parrotshortfilm.com/) and pro wrestler Nigel McGuiness’s documentary The Last of McGuinness (http://www.nigelwrestling.com/). They've also had their songs and albums played over half a million times as staples on Jamendo’s commercial services program, with tens of thousands of downloads. Eschewing genre based descriptions, Farmertan wears its varied musical influences on its sleeve at times, culminating into a very indie rock centric take on the rock and roll genre. It has been said that Farmertan does not sound like other bands, other bands sound like Farmertan.
