Pretty and Nice
“Their love of late-70’s new wave (Squeeze, Elvis Costello, XTC) is still in full effect, as is the band’s way with an infectious hook.” - Brooklyn Vegan
"...there's something about the way Boston trio Pretty & Nice re-imagine the playfully manic, barbed-wire sounds of Devo, XTC, and This Year's Model-era Elvis Costello..." - Pitchfork
"...upbeat, quirky speaker thwappers that split the difference between the Shins and Of Montreal" - MTV Hive
"The band buries post-punk hooks under feverish ranting and the trash-can clang of robotic electro... Riffs are spot-welded to jerky beats, and the whole sound hinges on a gleeful self- deconstruction." - The AV Club
Pretty & Nice is comprised of Jeremy Mendicino (lead vocals/guitar/gadgets), Holden Lewis (lead vocals/guitar/keys), and Roger Lussier (bass/keys/horn). The band has toured and shared stages with the likes of The Get Up Kids, Miniature Tigers, The Thermals, Title Tracks (John Davis from Q and not U), and Built to Spill. The band has already announced several tour dates for 2013, including runs with Jukebox the Ghost, Northern Faces, and performed at SXSW.
The band released their debut LP Pink & Blue in 2006 and followed up with an EP, Blue & Blue, the following year. In 2008, Pretty & Nice launched their critically acclaimed Get Young full-length album through Hardly Art, earning rave reviews and attention from the likes of Pitchfork, AV Club, MTV Hive, NPR's All Songs Considered, Interview Magazine and more.
