Crystal Skulls (not The Crystal Skulls) are a Seattle, Washington-based indie pop band, named after a legend that there are 13 ancient crystal skulls hidden worldwide, which have mystical powers. They are most recognized for their intelligent, smooth, poppy sound, pianistic overtones, and their hard work ethic (in releasing their sophomore album only 12 months after their debut album). Both drummer Casey Foubert and bass guitarist Yuuki Matthews formerly played with the band Seldom.
