"Clever Girl is a band that formed in Arlington, Massachusetts in 2009. They released their ‘ http://www.last.fm/music/Clever+Girl/No+Drum+and+Bass+in+the+Jazz+Room" rel="nofollow - No Drum and Bass in the Jazz Room ’ EP in 2010 and their ‘ http://www.last.fm/music/Clever+Girl/Clever+Girl" rel="nofollow - Clever Girl ’ EP in 2011. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Clever-Girl/152125698181504" rel="nofollow - Facebook | http://clevergirlmusic.com/" rel="nofollow - Website " Their website appears to be quite dead, unfortunately  But, the music is, thankfully, timeless, and quite good at that. They are labeled as a mixture between post-rock, math rock (genres that overlap frequently, anyway), and jazz, noted by the use of horns in their instrumentation. While retaining a number of post/math elements, their overall sound is quite experimental and off the wall, so Eclectic could possibly be my first choice, with especial reverence given to the jazz elements, but have a listen for yourselves: |

Five more tracks on either soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/#clevergirlmusic" rel="nofollow - https://soundcloud.com/#clevergirlmusic , myspace: http://www.myspace.com/clevergirlboston" rel="nofollow - http://www.myspace.com/clevergirlboston or reverbnation: http://www.reverbnation.com/clevergirl" rel="nofollow - http://www.reverbnation.com/clevergirl . Don't envy the guy who gets to write their bio though (should they be approved) from what they give away here...One (different) meaningless line of nonsense on each site!

| Just a couple of 22-minute and 16-minute EPs but hopefully that will be enough for the team. Nice music and this wil be an interesting eval. Post/Math/jazz fusion, with some electronics and a bit of heavy (JR/F was my initial impression, until I heard that other stuff). Possibly Eclectic but there's also a lot of jangly pop in there. Hard to pinpoint where this might fit, and you'll probably have to wait a while to hear about this one. |

| Difficult indeed. But, I'm sure the guys will at least have fun with this one. |
