Kaiser Cartel

By Aaron Ladage

Published on July 03, 2008

“Okay” by Kaiser Cartel, from March Forth (Bluhammock Music):

Sweet ride, Kaiser Cartel

Details:

Kaiser Cartel, with the Only Children and the Belles. Tuesday, July 8, at the Record Bar.

With its satin-smooth vocals, likable melodies and momentary smatterings of cataclysmic bliss, it's amazing Kaiser Cartel hasn't been heard on a Grey's Anatomy episode. Much like Mates of State in style and history, real-life couple Courtney Kaiser and Benjamin Cartel are the yin and yang of this notable New York duo, but with a slightly more mellifluous call-and-response than their formerly Kansan counterparts. Their debut full-length, March Forth, could be the perfect soundtrack for the next McDreamy and Meredith elevator make-out scene.
