The Von Bondies

Born in Detroit in 1997, The Von Bondies have had many line-up changes since their inception, with lead guitarist, vocalist and songwriter Jason Stollsteimer and drummer Don Blum being the only persistent members. They issued their first album Lack Of Communication in 2001, with an European reissue the following year, receiving positive reviews on both occasions. It wasn't until the success of the single C'mon C'mon, which was featured in Burnout 3: Takedown and also hit #21 in the UK charts, in early 2004 got the band even more followers, and the second album of Pawn Shoppe Heart in March received much more critical acclaim than the first. The majority of the group's line up changes happened in 2006, when guitarist Marcie Bolen and bassist Carrie Smith both left, and were replaced by temporary touring musicians. The group recruited Christy Hunt to replace Bolen and Leann Banks to replace Smith, and released their third album Love, Hate And Then Theres You in February 2009. C'mon C'mon's video is below, with downloads afterwards.
