Yep, that's the members list of Gayngs, the new so-called supergroup from Minnesota, and, to be honest, only the name Justin Vernon (Bon Iver) rings a bell, and, to be honest again, that totally suffices.
I love me some Bon Iver, and, even without being too hot on jazz, Gayngs' music tickles my fancy in just the right way when it comes to music I like to lye in bed to, wondering just how long it will be until hoverboards become a reality.

Their inspiration? Well, they say their only inspiration comes from 10cc's "I'm Not In Love", which, excuse my american, is an awesome statement... dude.

Gayngs' debut album entitled "Relayted" is soon to be released via JAGJAGUWAR and contains 11 finger-licking tracks, each recorded at 69 bpm, so you know they're sexual. Promotion for the album in form of several visually appealing videoclips can be found on their Vimeo page. My favourite example:
