Just as Beirut is from New Mexico and Architecture in Helsinki hails from Australia, I'm From Barcelona are not, naturally, from Barcelona. Rather than the Catalan capitol, the 29 member indie pop carnival led by Emanuel Lundgren - he's the redhead holding his yellow ukelele high - originates in Jonkoping, Sweden. Tonight they play the First Unitarian Church, with Pepi Ginsberg, on their way to Coachella. Now how are all those people going to fit on stage? Below is the band's super-cheery signature tune, "We're From Barcelona." Go to their MySpace page to hear "Britney."
