About — The artist
Le Loup was an American indie band founded in September 2006 in Washington, by Sam Simkoff (keyboards, banjo). The band also included Christian Ervin (computer), Michael Ferguson (guitar), Dan Ryan (bass), Robert Sahm (drums) and Jim Thomson (guitar). Its name means “The Wolf” in French. The band has been compared to Sufjan Stevens, Arcade Fire, The Books, Animal Collective and Yeasayer.
The band was signed to Hardly Art, a label founded by Sub Pop founder Jonathan Poneman, in early 2007. Its first album, The Throne of the Third Heaven of the Nations' Millennium General Assembly, was released on 11 September 2007. Its final album, Family, was released on Hardly Art on 22 September 2009.
Its song “Morning Song” featured in BlackBerry adverts aired in the summer of 2010. On its Facebook page, the band announced that it was no longer playing together.
