Make Music Salem

M69s

M69's are a Power Pop Rock trio from Salem, Oregon. They perform and record extraordinarily well-crafted and thoughtful songs, employing the traditional guitar-bass-drums and harmony vocals thing with delightful expertise. There is something terrifically familiar about their sound. Is this the Beatles in 1968? Is it early Hollies? Is it the Jam in 1980? Big Star in 1972? Naah. M69's appear to live quite squarely in the present day. Oh, they've got their influences, but they're also one of those bands that seem determined to present you with a gift you haven't received or experienced before. It may be new, or it may be vintage. But it's definitely unique, and depending on your musical taste, patently unforgettable.
