Cub (band)


Cub was an indie pop band from Vancouver, British Columbia that formed in 1992 and disbanded in 1997. They played a melodic, jangly form of pop punk that was dubbed "cuddlecore" by some music critics. Their song "New York City" was covered by They Might Be Giants on their album Factory Showroom, and their song "Little Star" was covered by Washington's Sicko on their album, Laugh While You Can Monkey Boy.

Members

Original drummer Valeria Fellini was replaced by Lisa G. in 1994. Neko Case also played drums on some early recordings as well as on tour in later years. Years later she would go on to form her own all-female three piece Vancouver band, Maow.
Robynn Iwata co-formed I Am Spoonbender in 1997 in San Francisco. Lisa Marr and Lisa G. started another band in 1998 once they moved to California from their native Vancouver.
The group was emblematic of the twee pop and cuddlecore style. At their cozy, casual live shows, they sometimes played in their pajamas, and gave out presents to audience members.
