The Pastels is an indie band from Scotland. Although virtually unknown outside of indie rock circles, the Pastels are one of the most inspirational and enduring groups of the genre, in their early days spearheading a movement toward a renewed sense of wistful musical primitivism and willful naivete known variously as "shambling" and "anorak pop." In addition, their influence helped bring international notice to a resurgent Scottish musical community
