You may remember Casper & the Cookies opening up for The Apples In Stereo in Buffalo a few months back. If you were there, you may also remember being struck by the band’s intricate psychedelic power pop that perfectly complimented The Apples’ set. Formed in 1998 in Athens, Georgia, Casper & the Cookies is a band comprised of various songwriters, including Jason NeSmith (aka Casper Fandango, ex-Of Montreal), all collaborating to create a harmonic blend of innocence, youth and naivete. On their most recent recording, The Optimist Club (Happy Birthday to Me), both the lyrical and cultural references are truly powerful and posess a beauty all but the most cynical could relate to. Casper & the Cookies play at Mohawk Place on Tuesday (May 1), at 8pm, with The Icicles. The Missing Planes will also be performing
