Passion Pit hit the floor running ever since their Valentine's Day inspired formation several years ago.

Who knew that when Michael Angelakos recorded some songs for his girlfriend on the Hallmark holiday that it would launch him and his bandmates into elcro-indie pop stardom? Probably not the band, but the musical world at large took immediate notice of their quirky musical contructions, not to mention their soaring melodies and ability to successfully bring children's choirs onto indie radio waves. If you haven't taken notice of these Boston natives yet- hop to it. They're currently on tour promoting their 2009 release, "Manners."
