Few musicians in the San Jose DIY music scene understand the value of a pop sensibility more than Jaake Margo. He's probably best known for fronting Kill the Bats--a high-energy emo band with a nostalgic doo-wop twist.

Get Married has an aesthetic of pure bubblegum, playing '50s doo-wop guitar pop with screeching guitar solos sounding out modern jukebox classics you'll swear you've heard a thousand times before.
