Throw Me the Statue is an American indie pop band. ==Biography== Throw Me the Statue was formed by Scott Reitherman after he began self-releasing CDs of buzzy, lo-fi indie pop in 2004. Friends, including Pedro the Lion member Casey Foubert, pitched in to help as Reitherman added instruments including drum machines and glockenspiels to round out his sound. A full band came into shape in early 2007 as Throw Me the Statue's debut album ''Moonbeams'' was released on Reitherman's Baskerville Hill label and later on Secretly Canadian.〔Rich Thane, ("An interview with Throw Me The Statue," ) The Line of Best Fit, March 11, 2008.〕〔Michaelangelo Matos, ("Throw Me the Statue: Creaturesque," ) ''The A.V.
