You guys, Pollens is really fucking good. They have fantastically weird beats and multi-layered vocals that sort of reminds one of Tune-yards, or even Micachu and the Shapes. They were one of the bands I really wanted to see at the Capitol Hill Block Party, but regrettably missed for some dumb scheduling conflict, and I haven't gotten a chance to see them since. Luckily, the local Cornish educated six-piece just got added to the Hey Marseilles record release party at the Showbox March 1st. Innovative local talent buyer Nathan Chambers recently boasted to me that he set up their first show at the Rendezvous. He swears that several band members were playing instruments that he's never even heard of, and also assures me that they are amazing live. Listen to a few of their songs from their three song EP on bandcamp:

They are indeed great.
They also have a full length album out. Not just a 3 song teaser. The album will kill you.
