Neon Trees: Neon Trees is a LDS rock band from Provo, UT, with origins in Temecula, California . Formed initially by neighbors Tyler Glenn (lead vocals/keyboards) and Chris Allen (guitars), the band made its first home in Provo, eventually adding Branden Campbell (bass) and Elaine Bradley (drums/vocals) to the lineup. Although a well known band in Provo, the band didn't receive nationwide exposure until late 2008 when they were chosen as openers for several of The Killers' North American tour dates.[1] Not long after, the band was signed by major record label Mercury Records in early 2009.[2] Additionally, the group was voted Band of the Year in 2009 by City Weekly, a popular Salt Lake City publication.[3] Although they had several prior independent releases, the band released its debut album at Mercury/Def Jam, Habits, on March 16, 2010.[4] with "Animal" as its lead single.[5] The band performed "Animal" during their March 23, 2010 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and the band will be touring opening for 30 Seconds To Mars and Mutemath throughout the Spring of 2010. There are two music videos for "Animal", a viral video and an official music video. The viral version features the band playing in a desert.[6] The official version features the band "destroying" an art gallery with paint as the patrons slowly morph into animal-headed humans and dance around them.

The band was recently featured on the iPhone/iPod touch application Tap Tap Revenge 3 with their latest single "Animal".
