WHAT IT IS: The sibling duo, consisting of Zach and Ben Yudin, provides sun- drenched, jangly, pop with their own unique twist on the true California tradition. The music is bright and upbeat, but with a little bit of romance and moony-eyed longing. It’s the sound of kids from the suburbs who fantasize in Technicolor, whose view of the Golden State is its own form of idealism.
