Of Montreal

Summary: of Montreal are an indie pop band which formed in Athens, Georgia, United States in 1997. The band is fronted by Kevin Barnes, the only constant member of the band. They were among the second wave of groups to emerge from The Elephant 6 Recording Company and the group has a style that is typical of many Elephant 6 bands due to their interest in combining musical experimentation with the basic tenets of pop i.e. catchy melodies and sing-along choruses.
