“She’s the Moon”

The Pansies Band Tiny Desk Concert Application, February 2025

The Pansies are a Berkeley-based alternative rock band formed in 2023. They got their start by playing shows at the historic Bowles Hall Residential College at UC Berkeley and now perform across the Bay Area with a sound inspired by the likes of boygenius, No Doubt, and The Talking Heads.

The group currently consists of Bella Sonen, Caleb Marsh, Ian Watson, Max Cope, Sahana Moogi and Tiago Dias.
