Bio: In 1999 Heather and I started our musical collaboration which would eventually be known as BAGHEERA.

“Bagheera is made for fans like me: people who love Superchunk, Yo La Tengo, Grandaddy and Rainer Maria. It's a duo of Theodore Moll and Heather Dallape, and despite signature hardened guitar lines and distorted squeal, these two are softies in the best way. Twelves comes for the rock, but stays for the undying melody. They blend layers of full, contagious, and often noisy rock styling with unabashed enthusiasm, constantly sounding like they're hitting their stride. Twelves is not meant to be airtight, leaving space for these deliberate sidebars and patient listeners. As such, it is continually rewarding, and shows Bagheera as a band to follow - track to track and from this remarkable debut forward .”

“Bagheera - Twelves (Asian Man) Bagheera (fun to say, isn't it?) is a female/male indie pop combo that will inevitably draw comparisons with Mates of State. That's not a bad thing. Bagheera is every bit as catchy and bittersweet, and their sound is perhaps more varied because of the slightly more experimental nature of their music. Often they will include short instrumental interludes between the more "standard" songs, and these are frequently interesting, and occasionally pointless. Overall, I was very impressed with this album. Recommended If You Like: Mates of State, Rainer Maria –CincinnatiShows.com”

“Intelligent indie rock: three words that can start you on your way to understanding Bagheera. But obviously we have to expand on that. A boy-girl duo that can give an impressively produced yet still rocking sound. A fascination with Halloween in specific and science or science fiction in general in their songs. And an overall exciting 13-track debut album, titled Twelves. That will get you most of it. Bagheera are not afraid to take you somewhere with their music, whether as far away as Jupiter or as pleasant as an unnamed coast. They will not take the direct route, however, layering it all in quirky lyrics, scrappy guitars, and fractured rhythms. Have no fear, though, because this is a musical journey definitely worth taking, as good sounds are never too far away. ”

— Dan Shvartsman, -30-

“Bagheera • Twelves • Asian Man • Bagheera are a delightful male-female partnership, featuring interwoven vocals reminiscent of Mates of State, with a more straight-up pop rock sound. Theodore Moll of MU300 is the male aspect. Both members round out all of the instrumentation tracks on the album, which is lush and varied, and they sing about "love, space/time travel, electronic redemption, and the promise and fear of scientific endeavor." The world can never have too much geekiness! A shining debut – I look forward to future releases. (DP) ”
