Of Montreal - Du Og Meg


Of Montreal (styled as of Montreal) is an indie pop/rock band from Athens, GA. It was founded by frontman Kevin Barnes in 1996, named after a failed romance with a woman "of Montreal." The band is one of the founding bands of the Elephant 6 collective. Throughout its existence of Montreal's musical style has evolved from vaudeville and Beatles influenced psychedelic twee pop to a mixture of electronica, funk, glam, and afrobeat music influenced by Prince and David Bowie. This music isn't for all ears, but seeing one of their shows is one hell of an experience.
