Music: Rock/Pop Tilly & the Wall

  • Tilly_large
Despite two albums of joyous indie pop, Omaha's Tilly & the Wall will likely always be known as "that band with a tap dancer instead of a drummer" — although, if you didn't know otherwise, you'd swear it was a Phil Spector mix of timpani and castanets. In fact, the group as a whole feels like an extension of Spector's pop symphonies. Derek Pressnall's adenoidal counter-harmonies might make the band's affinity with Conor Oberst a little too explicit (theirs was also the first release from Oberst's Team Love label), but between the boundless enthusiasm and mass of glockenspiel, brass, and strings, few can match Tilly's whimsical take on personal heartache and euphoric live show.
