Hospital Ships; Oh, Ramona



Hospital Ships is Jordan Geiger of Lawrence, Kansas based band Minus Story (Jagjaguwar). He also plays trumpet and keyboards, all the while recording refresh pop-tunes for his new side-project.

He is playing east coast dates to promote his debut Oh, Ramona, out October 21st on Graveface Records. This fall he will be playing with Shearwater, and Black Moth Super Rainbow.

Here is an adorable video for his song Baby for J., The whole handycam thing might make a couple of you dizzy, I find it all a little charming.




These songs are very fun, interesting, and refreshing. I wouldn't be able to handle another afro-jazz-pop group, a la Vampire Weekend. Hospital Ships' music has a distinctive soundscape. Listen.

Mp3's: Hospital Ships - Baby For J.; Hospital Ships - The Shots I Drank
