My first thought was that only band I could think of who really fuse pop-rock-R&B this way was a band I saw open for Plain White T’s several years ago called The Hatch… hmmm, whatever happened to The Hatch? Apparently they changed their name… to Burn Down the Mission! Sneaky!

Burn Down the Mission’s debut album (under that name, at least), Caroline, was produced by Warren Huart (Kris Allen, Augustana, The Fray) and mixed by Mark Needham (The Killers, Metro Station).
