@ryanca2003 I think if you separate the song from the video, you'd find it's as long as it needs to be. I was actually disappointed in the video the first time I saw it because the band already had one that did a good job of representing its playful camaraderie and another that admittedly was an impossible act to follow. (I'll feature both as jams eventually.) But its silly, dorky charm won me over, and I'm just glad they got a video made for such a terrific song.
@stereoGrover They're originally from my hometown of Sacramento, California, but they currently reside in Austin, Texas. I believe that's where this video was shot.
@Rosgo Glad you like it! "Family Haircut" is actually part of a series of Agent Ribbons videos and performances I'll be presenting here cause I think they're far too talented to remain as unheard as they've been the past few years. Can't promise that they'll all be as satisfying as this one, but I do think they have a consistency and range that make such devotion justifiable. Stay tuned!

@clickysounds Busking! Thanks, you gave me an idea of what my next jam will be. If I can find it here, of course.

@aaronshimer Hey, if they're good enough for the gorillas, they're good enough for me!

Good song, impressive video but maybe a bit too long...(I know there's not much you can do with that unless you just happen to know them).

Definitely too long - in terms of video and song.
stereoGrover
Nice!

That's the U.S. - right? What city do they hail from?

Very nice. And that is Austin. By the State Cemetery on the East Side. I think.

@GregortheMendel Thanks for the confirmation.
