More edible than their namesake, at least.  Denver-based Hearts of Palm was apparently once known as Nathan and Stephen, but then they added a few members… and then a few more… and now there’s something like 10 or 12 people in the band. Seriously, the members keep going on and on into the background, 3 or 4 rows of musicians looking giddy, or perplexed, or sleepy.

Luckily, they unify the mood for their music, producing a bouncy, energy-filled blast that doesn’t relent throughout their 4-song EP (available for free on their website). It’s an interesting song; although a bit repetitive (in a sing-along way), it jumps around lamenting empty houses and people who never had a chance to make it. Alas, even the most exciting of our songs can’t escape the doldrums of our times.
