Poppermost

Poppermost, on the Suicide Pop! Records label, is an original indie sunshine pop music band and cartoon based in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. The retro pop rock band draws comparisons to R.E.M., Wilco, Elvis Costello, Oasis, Jet, The Beatles, Beach Boys, Queen, and classic '60s / '70s pop radio. Poppermost has been picked as "one of Las Vegas' most promising bands" by the Las Vegas Weekly entertainment magazine, and also received a Best of Las Vegas 2007 award from the Las Vegas Review-Journal newspaper. Alex Oliver and Roy Al Rendahl, both registered with ASCAP, started Poppermost on July 4th, 2001. They have released three full-length albums, and several CD singles and EPs of original music, all recorded at Roy Al's Trimordial Studio. Their influences include: The Beatles, R.E.M., Oasis, Queen, David Bowie (Ziggy Stardust era), Beach Boys, Jimi Hendrix, Rolling Stones, Santana, Bruce Springsteen, and The Who. The cartoon version of Poppermost is Lex Neon (a chicken who thinks he's a mockingbird) on guitars, keyboards, and vocals; Vegas Royal (a Blue Jay) on bass, gadgetry, and vocals; and Ms. Tex Duckingham (a duck) on drums, percussion, and vocals. They play pop music and teach pop music history. The Poppermost name originates from the early Beatles' inspirational call and response, John: "Where are we going, lads?" Paul, George, Ringo: "To the toppermost of the poppermost, Johnny!"
