A lot has happened to Neon Trees since we did this interview with them last year at Velour (Provo, UT), including the release of their full-lengthHabitson Mercury Records, a hit with their first single Animal, a tour with 30 Seconds To Mars, and appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Oh yeah, and the Jonas Brothers have tweeted about them.

In this video interview, we catch a glimpse of Neon Trees not long after inking their deal with Mercury Records, and get to see them before their roller coaster ride began. Neon Trees give us four stories about the origin of their band name (all of which are entertaining; one of which is actually true), touch on their record deal, discuss their songwriting influences and philosophy, and talk about some of the more interesting aspects of their band dynamics.

@tennanttrainee8 "All four members of Neon Trees are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints." even so, it's rude to assume, to judge.

[PaladinHero]

And they were amazing on Conan. And their drummer is the second sexiest female musician next to Fallon Bowman.

[PaladinHero]

This was a good interview with a fun, endearing, charismatic group of musicians...sort of like what an interview with Sex Bob-omb would be like if those characters weren't snot nosed hipsters. Spot on about a lot of those '80's references, too (though they left out Toto).
