Exit Clov is a five-piece indie rock band from Washington, DC, whose sound is often described as “kaleidoscopic pop noir".
[1] The group features twin sisters Emily Hsu (vocals, keyboard, violin) and Susan Hsu (vocals, guitar, violin) along with Aaron Leeder (guitar), Brett Niederman (bass), and John Thayer (drums).
In 2006 Jolly Roget Sessions was created with the help of producer Roger Greenawalt (No Doubt, Ben Kweller, Iggy Pop and Ric Ocasek).
Since their formation, Exit Clov has performed with a number of bands and artists, most notably Dr. Dog, Kanye West, Architecture in Helsinki, Animal Liberation Orchestra, Jukebox The Ghost, Cloud Cult, Razorlight and Tea Leaf Green.
Today they continue to tour the US, commonly performing in northeastern venues like the 9:30 Club in Washington, Bowery Ballroom in New York City, Middle East in Boston and their unofficial home stage in DC, The Black Cat.
