Helium 4

My favorite Boston band. I used to have such a crush on Mary Timony -- you can see why here, in the music video for their one hit, "Superball," off The Dirt of Luck album. When Timony and her lead guitarist, Ash Bowie, broke up, Helium fell apart, but Timony has gone on to have a stellar solo career, if her last two albums are any indication. Much credit is due, indeed!
