I am half of the indie pop band The Jellyfish Bandits. Melinda Boyce and I make music with battered instruments in Portland, OR. We have recorded over 20 songs and recently were signed to an indie record label called Mushpot Records.

To hear our music visit our Tumblr Blog or Myspace.

What music blogs have said about us:

“‘Nobody likes The Jellyfish Bandits, except for you, except for you’, sings Aaron Leck and Melinda Tracy on the opening track titled ‘Famous Art Thieves’… That statement is clearly untrue, because I love them! Their DIY lo-fi pop is just about as infectious as anything I have heard over the past six months, and numerous Jellyfish Bandits songs have stuck in my head for days on end.”

“I’m kind of [in] love with the Jellyfish Bandits…The Pacific Northwest two-piece toy with the sound of Matt & Kim and Half-handed Cloud, while embodying the spirit of a stripped-down Architecture in Helsinki.”
- [CONFESSIONS OF A WOULD-BE HIPSTER]

“The Jellyfish Bandits deliver box fresh minimalist electro pop using a random selection of instruments and objects from the standard electro keyboards to spoons and ‘jingling keys’ that recalls the lo-fi pop experimentalism of The Unicorns. They modestly describe their sound as “a bat stuck in a whale’s blowhole screeching for help” but don’t let that put you off as it’s more like a couple of popstrels throwing a casio round a well equipped garage.”

“Atop the delightfully coo’s and aah’s, there’s the slyly sun shiny radiating boy / girl harmonies and ridiculously catchy though child like keys braids to bask and bathe your listening experience.”
