Bean Listenin' to... The Marshmallow Kisses

All photos from The Marshmallow Kisses' MySpace

T
he Marshmallow Kisses from Hong Kong is one of my new favorite indie pop bands! Their sweet harmonies and twinkly instrumentation are as precious as the band's name, but gently melancholy lyrics keep their songs from being too fluffy.



The Marshmallow Kisses consists of Edine and Peter; click on their links to check out some cool photos they've taken.





I love their CD "i wonder why my favorite boy leaves me an EP." The second track, "My Dear Giant," is particularly lovely. I'm not sure how easy it is to find their CD and singles outside of Asia, but you can listen to their music on their Web site and Myspace.


(And isn't my new name for my music posts ridiculous? I was going to name it "The Musical Fruit," but then I realized that some of the bands I write about here probably wouldn't like the allusion to farts. Then I tried Listenbean, but didn't quite like it. So now it's just "Bean Listenin' to... Who says puns are the lowest form of humor???)

  1. So cute - I love bands with just a guy and a girl in them (as long as they're not a couple!). Great music, too!
