Known about these guys for about a year and after hearing a number of their songs I had to buy all their albums. I love the Folk Music album more then Audio-Bio (Audio-Bio was mad funny though. PKs I have a dream skit is too funny).
little chimpanzee
I've only listened to You've Got A Friend cos it's in wongfu films. But I heard they're really good. Will definitely keep up w/ these guys.
cmacaronee

glad to hear my boys getting mad love from the soompi crowd.

might be hard to believe but I used to roll with these guys a little bit, although I was more of like a groupie / roadie for them than anything else. They're mad down to earth and I'm glad that they're moving it big now.
AiriinxKumori

They do a lot of things in the west, but I hear they do a LOT of stuff in NY specifically.

Lately they've been doing things in London and Chicago and by the way it looks on their blog it looks like a lot of fun !!

my friends and I were @ Hiro last night (had no idea there was a guest performance) dancing near the stage and then suddenly Miss Info (from hot 97fm) comes out and introduces the group and we're like hey! we got a good view biggrin.gif They performed 2 songs..didn't know the names of the songs lol..I've only heard "Round Round" from the Tokyo Drift soundtrack..they were pretty good..most of the girls seemed to like one of them in particular, not sure who because he and another member had shades on but it's just the one without glasses and the one without long hair? haha that's the best way i can describe him.
KevNish

i've seen these awesome boys a bunch of timeslive and i just saw them at tabu on saturday night...i really really like their music...i'm working on uploading the video i got from saturday..i'll be back

they've been getting lots of love from the radios down south so i'm hoping up in the bay area things will pick up soon


but i'm new to the thread....i was searching if anyone started one and obviously someone did...yay but i've been fan for awhile i think over a year and i've supported them as much as i can...but sometimes college got in the way but i've graduated now haha so i've got some time

these boys are so humble..so cute and so nice i dunno just seeing them perform live is an awesome feeling..such a great stage presence


but they're getting lots of recognition on the radios so norcal/bayarea lets help out!!!

text, call, email hehe anything

lowridin' -- my favorite haha but i honestly like a lot of their songs
riceronin

they just released a new project with Wong Fu Productions, Quest Dance Crew and Shuttershades

Found this from fm's website blog at www.fmonyourdial.com

FAR EAST MOVEMENT x Wong Fu Productions (Cannes Film Festival) x Quest Dance Crew (FOX's "So You Think You Can Dance" and "American Idol") x Shuttershades (Kanye West) have linked up for this fresh project titled "DANCE LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON"

Check out the video at www.wongfuproductions.com




FM X SHUTTERSHADES 2.0 Collabo: http://www.shuttershadesonline.com/fareastmovement



splendidlure
I just watched it. The music video was awesome.
heyitzthatfc
I still got my audiobio CD heh.. All time favorites must be Focus, Hunger Strike, and Pure Poetry when Kev Nish used to go by the alias TechNish[in]..

Their new music is more pop hop/dance music then what they used to do but it's still all good and fun. No reason not to enjoy them.

Not only that but they gave shutter shades a reason to be worn now, and they look a lot better too!
khmer_chick2010
These guys are SO awesome! Their new song "Dance Like Michael Jackson" is so catchy. I was listening to the song all day xD I really can't wait until they start appearing on MTV and stuff. My favorite song still is "Round Round".

http://www.fareastmovement.com/st/artist-of-the-the-week/

I'm the editor of asian-central.com's official blog and I wrote about them as "Artist of the Week" and messaged them about it. They messaged me back with their contact info (including PHONE NUMBER) and they also featured it on their website!!!!!! I sent them an interview for a part 2 of the article and they just REPLIED TODAY!!!! Eek. I'll stop blabbering now. *Starts dancing like Michael Jackson*.
CindyM87
They are seriously super hot. met them in person, super cool guys. i took pictures with them..
