I know little to nothing about this band beside the fact that they were from Santa Cruz, CA (you can hear them sing about highway 17 and local Bay Area locations) they were on the same label as the other band I've posted on here; The English Work Standard and were signed to Fall Of The West Records which was a DIY folk/ punk label from Amherst, MA
The bands members were Nick, Tori, Dylan and friends and ran from 2004 - ?
Bookends plays a interesting sound of Folk / Acoustic / Alternative music with guitars drums and violins so exactly what you'd imagine from a early Santa Cruz bike church band, very fun sound overall (think soft Koalacaust)
Favorite Track: Straight In, the song's title is pretty self explanatory as it is the first track on the album but also perfectly gives you the vibe of the entire album to come, I'd recommend this album to fans of any folk fans who want to relax and put off anarchy until after lunch.
