Pajama Club

Born out of a series of relatively low-key jam sessions in their Auckland, New Zealand domicile, the Pajama Club were formed by the husband-and-wife duo of Neil (Crowded House, Split Enz) and Sharon Finn. Neil spent each session behind the drum kit, while Sharon handled the bass. After laying down tracks in their home studio, Neil and Sharon brought producer and songwriter Sean Donnelly and Alana Skyring into the mix, and the Pajama Club became a physical entity. In 2011, the newly minted quartet booked a short U.S. summer tour (including opening slots with Wilco) in anticipation of the release of the group's eponymous debut album in September of that year. ~ James Christopher Monger
