Lanterns

There's at least 2 bands with the name Lanterns: free music @ lanterns.bandcamp.com 1) LANTERNS. formed in San Diego,CA in the early days of 2006, working under the premise that there was no premise, exercising the art of tuneful, yet extremely noisy pop songs. San Diego’s Lanterns might have a luminescent name, but they have yet to enjoy the spotlight. Despite high-profile gigs with bands like Matt and Kim, …And You Will Knows By the Trail of Dead, and These Arms Are Snakes, the four-piece has operated mostly under the local radar.
