Restless People + MNDR Live at FADER BOWL

Last time I saw Restless People, I was restless waiting for Washed Out after midnight on a Monday night (!!!) at Santos Party House. Restless People were a really fun supporting band, packed with high energy and air horns (my favorite!) Tuesday night they played Brooklyn Bowl with one of our favorite new chicks on...

Beach House ‘Teen Dream’ Release Show w/ Jana Hunter at The Bell House

Tuesday night Baltimore’s Beach House played an intimate show at The Bell House to celebrate the release of their third album Teen Dream on Sub Pop Records. I was unfamiliar with a majority of opening act Jana Hunter’s music prior to the show but all it took was one song paired with her aloof...

Next week’s awesome line-up consists of Zambri and MNDR – who I became an instant fan of during CMJ for the Fader Fort. Get on your dancing shoes and join us...

TLC vs. Sleigh Bells: CMJ, The Hype and Beyond

Derek Miller and Alexis Krauss have managed to cause quite a bit of noise on the internet, having gone from amateurly recorded obscurity to booking sought after gigs and rolling with the likes of M.I.A. and Spike Jonze. Sleigh Bells: What is the method to their mayhem? Who are they? What kind of music is...

Friendly Fires at Music Hall of Williamsburg + Le Poisson Rouge

Friendly Fires at Music Hall of Williamsburg + Le Poisson Rouge

Honestly, Friendly Fires’ gig at Le Poisson Rouge last Wednesday is one that I’d like to wipe clean from my memory. There was no air conditioning, the crowd was terrible (see Concertgoer Wall of Shame), the set times were delayed hours, all of which took it’s toll on the band. With this said I...

Bushwick Opens Up This Weekend!

I may be partial to my neighborhood of Bushwick, Brooklyn but this in no way is clouding my demand that you visit the Bushwick Open Studios 2009! I’ve gone for the past few years and it’s a freaking blast meeting and partying with some really talented and creative people whilst looking at some of...

Glasvegas + Ida Maria at Music Hall of Williamsburg

Glasvegas + Ida Maria at Music Hall of Williamsburg

This past January we saw Glasvegas play Bowery Ballroom with Angela McCluskey, a show that left us pleasantly entranced by the epic array of James Allan’s powerful vocals, serious showmanship and of course (what overshadowed  many reporters experience at the show) the lights. For me, it was an exact visual representation of what I...

Spank Rock, Ninjasonik and Japanther at Bodega

I was delightfully surprised to hear Spank Rock was playing Bushwick’s Bodega yesterday along with Brooklyn’s Japanther and Ninjasonik, especially since it’s so closeby my apartment. It was the typical crowd of sweaty, shirtless guys, girls with messy hair and a cloud of smoke floating right above. All sets were pretty short, but high on...
