Which indie rock band from Portland released the 2000 album 'Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia'?

The Dandy Warhols released the 2000 album Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia. The Portland, Oregon, band issued its third studio album through Capitol Records on June 12, 2000.

The album marked a major breakthrough for the group, combining alternative rock, power pop, psychedelic color, and space-rock atmosphere. Its best-known song, “Bohemian Like You,” became especially prominent after appearing in a Vodafone advertisement, helping the album reach listeners far beyond the American indie-rock scene.

Recording began in December 1998 and ended in March 1999. The album was produced by frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor, Dave Sardy, and Gregg Williams. It was also the first Dandy Warhols album to feature drummer Brent DeBoer, who joined after original drummer Eric Hedford departed.

Listeners sometimes confuse the answer with other Portland-associated indie bands such as The Decemberists or Modest Mouse. Those groups are connected to the city’s broader music culture, but neither released Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia. The Dandy Warhols’ name itself is a play on pop artist Andy Warhol.
