The Hard Ones

The Beta Band is a group that almost anyone could like, but most people don't

But is it enough for the Radiohead heads in the nacho line in Santa Barbara? The misplaced hippie's ecstatic, but what about the Boone's Farm fans behind me? "Why is that guy wearing a turban?" I think I hear one of them say, confused by the band's habit of dressing as foreign nationals or old-school cowboys or astronauts when it takes the stage, even if it's still light enough outside to see the ocean. Jones can wait for them.

"I guess we're just wary of jumping in the deep end and everyone saying, 'You're great,' and then disappearing without a trace. We just want everything to build naturally and slowly. And hence we were a bit evasive. At the best of times."

Just another day at the office for The Beta Band: "I guess we're just wary of jumping in the deep end and everyone saying, 'You're great,' and then disappearing without a trace."
