He is We - Old Demos [2009]

This band is probaby the best unsigned band in the country. Rachel Taylor and Trevor Kelly of Tacoma, WA form the duo of He is We. The duo combines simplistic guitars and pianos along with the phenominal (and dare I say slightly soulful)voice of Rachel Taylor to create a sound that is unique and relatable. This band writes catchy hooks and melodies that will be stuck in your head for days.(i.e. Blame it on the Rain) They were voted purevolumes number 1 unsigned band of 2009, which means that these two 19 year olds wont be unsigned for too much longer. There are only so many different ways to say how amazing this band is and I cant really find anything bad to say about them considering they have only recorded demos(albeit very good demos). I have a feeling that indie bands that make this kind of music i.e. Now, Now Every Children and He is We will be the bands and genre that blows up this decade; the same way Fall Out Boy, Panic At The Disco, and Paramore did in this past decade. Anyway He is We is giving away their entire demo collection on their website for free so I'm Just going to link you to their site. This is something you should have in your collection because this band will be huge one day.
