by James Christopher Monger Formed in the fall of 2004, languid and lush Los Angeles-based dream pop outfit Snow & Voices grew out of solo sessions for singer/songwriters Lauri Kranz and Jebin Bruni. The group's first batch of pop-kissed, hazy California confections, the eponymous Snow & Voices, was released in 2005 on Bird Song Recordings. Snow & Voices' sophomore effort, What the Body Was Made For, arrived on their own label, Elastic Ruby, in July 2008.
