Mouthful of Bees are:
Micky Alfano (bass guitar)
Katelyn Farstad (drums)
Mark Ritsema (guitar)
Chris Farstad (guitar, lead vocals)

Minneapolis natives Mouthful of Bees formed in 2004 as just a brother-sister
guitar-and-drummer duo (Chris and Kate), but eventually evolved into the
full-sized band with the addition of Micky Alfano and Mark Ritsema (of The
Battle Royale).

In short, Mouthful of Bees play a composite of old-fashioned rock 'n roll and
newly fangled indie-rock. Doused with reverb and healthily distorted guitars,
the band is fronted with a solid background in riff-rock and what the record
lacks in fidelity is made up by the band's youthful optimism and innovative
songwriting.

With a voice reminiscent of the likes of Figure 8-era Elliot Smith and Clap Your
Hands Say Yeah, Chris Farstad's angelic voice is eerily contagious and
compelling. Set apart from other songwriters by his unique voice and intelligent
approach to songwriting, Farstad is the best frontman out of Minneapolis you
nearly never heard of.

Reviews and Honors:

"Thrilling and exciting."

"Frenetic guitar meet head-on with old-time rock melodies and punked up rhythms.
You'll want to clap your hands along and tap your feet."
