Some bands are silly. Some bands are saucy. Some bands, believe it or not, are sexy. Trike rocks all three without blinking a third eye. Trike, the indie electro folk band that plays like a lo-fi version of the Magnetic Fields with more horns, hail from the lovely shores of Vancouver. They have a bit of a notorious reputation for writing songs about local rock journalists and say they will try to write one for every journalist in every town they visit on their extensive Canadian tour. Matt Thomas brushed his hair and put on a nice three-piece suit in hopes of wowing Wes G. Knight and Stephen Taylor of Trike enough to get a little ditty in his honour.
