Arthur & Yu
Arthur & Yu are an indie folk band from Seattle, Washington. Their sound has been compared to that of various 1960s bands, as well as an aesthetic appeal of John Lennon/Yoko Ono.〔(Under the Radar Magazine's Review of A&Y ), ''undertheradarmag.com'', retrieved on March 15, 2008〕 The duo's title has its roots from childhood nicknames, 'Arthur' and 'Yu', for Olsen and Westcott, respectively.〔(A&Y's Record Label Webpage ) ''hardlyart.com'', contains biography, discography, etc., retrieved March 15, 2008〕 They have been touring across the U.S. in promotion of their debut, ''In Camera''. They were also featured on Dntel's album, Dumb Luck.
==History==
Olsen stumbled upon Westcott, who had a stint as the bassist for Rogue Wave, through a Craigslist ad, and they were both intrigued at each other's influences. The two met up and began playing demos of each other's songs.〔(Billboard Biography ) ''billboard.com'', contains biography and other useful information, retrieved March 15, 2008〕 The duo originally began playing music in with each other in one another's homes, moving up to local bar shows, without intent of being 'discovered' or signed to a record label. According to a ''Portland Mercury'' interview, Olsen explains that the songs were never meant to travel beyond the two, but Sub Pop founder Jonathan Poneman wished to release the songs on his new record label ''Hardly Art''.〔(Portland Mercury Interview & Review of A&Y ) ''portlandmercury.com'', retrieved March 15, 2008〕
