Which album?

Juliana: Harvest, and the new Harvest, which is good except for that song about the dog.

What else do you listen do?

Juliana: We listen to Arrested Development. And we listened to Jay play in his high school talent show when he was 15.

Greg: And we listened to Juliana sing a song with her best friend of 15 years, Laura Powers.

Juliana: We were listening to our high school records, like if you were in a high school show they'd make a record. We were laughing very hard.

Are you all originally from Boston?

Greg: No one's from Boston. The closest is Dave, and he's from Maine.

Juliana: And Thomas is from Queens. And I'm from Manhattan, and Greg is from North Carolina.

So how did you two first meet?

Greg: We went to school at The New England Conservatory, down in Boston, and met and became best friends and did a lot of stuff together in school. And once we got out of school we started trying to make music in the real world as opposed to the school world, and we decided to form our own band.

Did you ever think about going back to Manhattan?

Greg: She thinks about it everyday. She plans to move.

Juliana: I don't want to leave without the band. And New York's not a good band city.

Is that why you stayed in Boston?
