Wednesday night, the band Bright Eyes — Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis and Nathaniel Walcott — return to the Twin Cities for a concert at the Palace Theatre in St. Paul.
The press notes for the band Bright Eyes begin with the sentence, "Sometimes it feels like you hear a Bright Eyes song with your whole body," and it turns out that is also a decent intro to our Coffee Break for today. Bright Eyes are among a raft of artists and bands with names that reference body parts or physical characteristics. So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear by bands named for body parts or physical characteristics?
