Teen-Beat. Cotton Candy.

Cotton Candy is Mark Robinson (from the bands UNREST, AIR MIAMI, FLIN FLON) and Evelyn Hurley (BLAST OFF COUNTRY STYLE, HOT PURSUIT). They perform a potpourri of genrés - from indie-pop to electronic-pop to hard rock. They also show off their advertising jingle chops with covers of rare radio and TV commercials.

Mark and Evelyn also run the Teen-Beat label. Brightest Young Things said "Cotton Candy was absolutely the highlight of the night for me."
