Out In McAllen

I stumbled onto this GREAT electro duo a few months ago and from the get-go I found myself visiting their myspace page every day or two to listen to their stuff.

Hits & Mrs. is an electronic band formed in 2006, originally from San Antonio, TX. The band, Kyle Keith (who is behind the keys, programming, and production of the project), and Joshua Summers (vocals and songwriting) have been friends since childhood, and have been playing music together in some form or fashion for most of their lives. They’re now working on new material, despite living 4,500 miles apart (Kyle in NC and Josh in Germany). Their debut EP has recently been released!

I‘m not sure how I ended up on their page but from the second that first song started to play I couldn’t help but enjoy how clean and put together they sounded, most myspace bands just don’t cut it for me, Hits and Mrs really took me by surprise and with the release of their debut [beta] EP up for grabs on iTunes I’m sure Kyle and Joshua will be met with success and I wish them the best of luck.

They list their musical influences on they myspace page: Depeche Mode, Dave Gahan, Blaqk Audio, New Order, Deftones, Teamsleep, Jimmy Eat World, Billy Corgan, Anberlin, Stabbing Westward, the Cure, The Killers, Kevin Max, The Crystal Method, Imogen Heap, Paul Van Dyk, Heavens, Anything Box, Mute Math, Erasure, The Sounds, and Shiny Toy Guns… and if that list doesn’t make you want to listen, you’re lame!

I most likely picked them up on something Erasure related but yeah, just before I wrap this up, ‘Last Song’ has to be my favorite. So visit their myspace, take a listen , add them to your friends list, add their songs to your profile and support this great band.
