Who: Mates of State

From: Lawrence, Kan.

Why We Love Them: This husband-and-wife duo take the endearing chemistry from their marriage and let it loose in the studio and on the stage. In performance, cheery duets behind a set of drums and a piano are what they do best, and layers of strings complement the tunes well. If their relationship is as strong as their uptempo catchy pop arrangements, we say they've definitely got a lasting thing going on.
