The Nightgowns are a four piece pop group from Tacoma, WA, founded in 2005 as "The Elephants" by Trevor Dickson, Cody Jones, and Jason Freet. Infamous for their unpredictable and engaging live shows, which included instrument swapping, hilarious banter and the occasional stage fight, their antics and memorable songs quickly made their shows by far the most well-attended in the Tacoma local circuit, and garnered a loyal following in Seattle and throughout the rest of the NW as well. With the departure of Freet in '06, the remaining members added drummer BJ Robertson and multi-instrumentalist Kyle Brunette to the family and continued to perform, write, and record new material. Eventually the sound and songs evolved to the point of necessitating a name change, and "The Nightgowns" were officially born. The songs on i>Sing Something were recorded between July '07 and November '08. The band believes it to be their strongest material to date. The sound represents a shift from their previous formula which saw different songwriters in the group tampering with styles from airy synth pop to raw 60's rock, now coming together in a bigger bolder two and three chord contemplative drones - fleshed out into lyrical pop gems.-insound
