Big Fresh

Summary by Casey DeHoedt

Big Fresh is an absurd pop band with electronica hints from Lexington, Kentucky. Imagine The Faint after receiving a cupcake and a hug, or if the Partridge Family had adopted David Byrne. The band states a desire to create a positive change through positive perceptions and music. In 2008 the band released their LP Big Fresh Forever.
