Phenomenal Handclap Band are a Psych-Soul band from New York City. Their first full-length record, Phenomenal Handclap Band, came out in 2009 on Friendly Fire Recordings in the US and in 2010 on Tummy Touch Records. The album was also released world wide by KSR in Japan, Inertia in Australia, GOMMA in Germany, and Universal Records in the Philippines. The band was started by Daniel Collas and Sean Marquand. Both Collas and Marquand were DJ's and production partners working around the New York City area producing records for other artists. The two soon starting writing and producing their own music.
