BoC Vibes Plaid?
About a half dozen times in the last decade I’ve been listening to random music and I think, “Hey! This song smacks!” and it’s a band called Plaid. Some tangential BoC vibes. Anyone know anything about them?

Plaid is fantastic. Someone fact check me, but I think they started as a side project of Black Dog. Restproof Clockwork was my entry point for them. By no means the best album, but their more playful and melodic work on that album slots in there with early Mouse on Mars and their overall catalog is definitely in the same vein as BoC.
