I got some buddies in a band out of Oakland called DESA
Most of the members are from an older band called Link 80, so while the style of music if different, they have all been together for a long while and are really pretty tight, on recordings as well as live.
They are all stand up guys and fit the Indie genre I guess since they have stopped really going the CD route and are releasing small sets of 3 or 4 songs at a time for free on their website.
Check em out at their site or on MySpace:
