Back in 2003, Pants Yell formed in the local Boston art school scene. During the seven years that they were together, the group graced the local scene with intelligent indie pop tunes. After putting out their fourth record, Received Pronunciation, on Slumberland, the made the mutual decision to disband on good terms. 

There’s good news for any Pants Yell fans yearning for the simpler days of the mid-aughts: the band has announced that they will regroup for special benefit show on Sunday, March 26th with current Slumberland rockers Bent Shapes. The proceeds from the benefit will help Boston Children’s Hospital and the Boston Marathon.
