About (Current)

After placing eighth in the annual Indianapolis Battle of the Bands in 2003, quasi-shoegazer outfit and perpetual local underdogs Crazy Yeats lose their temperamental lead singer.

The remaining members (guitarists Sean and Elihu, bassist Lowell, drummer Michael) decide to stick together and redefine their sound, pushing a reluctant Sean back toward the front-man slot he once willingly surrendered.  However, Sean thinks that the new frontperson should be the mysterious young lady that the boys see singing karaoke.  As luck would have it, Sondra is a friend of their buddy and former manager Jack, and he in fact arranged for Sondra to show up.  Now, the boys prepare to meet Sondra for the first time . . .
