I think this song is great, but what’s with the music video? I think music artists can let their artistic side get the best of them when it comes to creating videos to accompany songs.

HOLY GHOST! – “Wait & See” May 4, 2011
This funky little jam is fantastically retro, undeniably catchy, and the video is awesome. Holy Ghost! uses their own fathers to play the band members, it’s pretty hilarious. If you like this track, you will no doubt love the rest of the self-titled debut album which was released last month via DFA. Don’t stop til you [...] Read More…

Andrew Levin and Casey Chen, two 18 year olds from Laguna Beach met Jordan Decker and Justin Siegel from Calabasas and the electro-pop band CARRAWAY was formed.
