my favorite band is hop along.
[{"role": "system", "content": "Hop Along is an indie folk-rock band from Philadelphia, formerly known as \"Hop Along, Queen Ansleis.\" Hop Along began as an acoustic freak folk solo project known as \"Hop Along, Queen Ansleis\" in 2004, during Frances Quinlan's senior year in high school. This led to the release of the album \"Freshman Year\" in the summer of 2005. Quinlan performed an acoustic solo act for several years as she honed her style. \"I would envy [full ensembles] because I thought that a band inherently carries more energy than a person does solo. I suppose you could argue that point, but when I was playing by myself it was just out of necessity. I wanted to play and I just couldn\u2019t seem to get a band together. I wanted to write and I didn\u2019t want to wait for anybody.\" Three years after her first album, Quinlan's brother Mark joined the project as drummer, followed by bassist Tyler Long in 2009. In light of the new formation, the name was shortened, possibly to better reflect the change from solo project to full band. Hop Along went on to release an EP, \"Wretches\", in 2009, and a full-length LP entitled \"Get Disowned\" on May 5, 2012, winning a highly positive critical response from the independent music press.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I love listening to Hop Along, an indie folk-rock band from Philadelphia.
