The Hundred in the Hands is a band formed of two members from New York City - Eleanore Everdell and Jason Friedman. The two discovered their shared sensibility for early hip hop, French house and disco, ska and dub, post-punk, British mod and girl pop from the 60's through the 80's and decided to form a band. Their first song, the post-punk rave-up "Dressed in Dresden" - was written and recorded in a couple of days, released online, picked up and released as a 45 by a record shop Pure Groove in the U.K. where they were soon playing shows and coming to the attention of Warp Records. Meanwhile, the two retreated to the bunker to write and record. During that time, Friedman and Everdell focused on deciding exactly who they wanted to be. What they discovered and emerged with were 11 startling new tracks and a precise and deliberate sound - described as avant pop.
