Is This What Rejection Sounds Like? Meet The Seattle-Based Band, The Rejections

The Rejections' Facebook page

Who are The Rejections?

"You know the Rockbottom Remainders? Yeah. Like that," says the Seattle-based band on its Facebook page

The band consists of published authors and their "trailing spouses" who, well, know a lot about rejection. They stopped by the KPLU studios last year. Listen to their performance of the song "Men of Luggage (Travel Light)": 

The Rejections' members include: Jennie Shortridge, Matt Gani, Garth Stein, Paul Mariz, Ben Bauermeister and Stephanie Kallos.

The band was featured on KPLU's weekly show Sound Effect on Feb. 7. The show explored the theme of failure.
