Lyrics from Band of the Day Review

With a name that echoes so scholarly, Princeton’s roots date back to its members’ grade school days. Twin brothers Jesse (guitar, vocals) and Matt Kivel (bass, vocals) and longtime comrade Ben Usen (keyboard) grew up on Princeton Street, where they’d created music until each left their home in Santa Monica for college. The trio reunited in London and formed the indie pop outfit in 2005 and recorded their debut A Case for the Emperor’s Clothes the following year. David Kitz (drums) joined the band in 2008, leading to their Bloomsbury EP release later that year. The band recorded their first full-length Cocoon of Love in 2009 and most recently released their sophomore Remembrance Of Things To Come in February 2012.
