Baltimore's Ecstatic Sunshine are a frantic, instrumental guitar-dueling duo. Members Matt Papich and Dustin Wong met at art school in 2004 and focused on the idea that "there are things to be done with sound besides just experiencing feelings all the time." The sound, which has been influenced by such things as Baltimore's party scene and deep sea fishing, earned them accompanying slots with Dirty Projectors, Aloha, Knife Skills, and Lightning Bolt. Freckle Wars was released on Carpark Records in September 2006. ~ Kenyon Hopkin, Rovi
