Looking For Some Fun This Weekend? Look No Further!
Amy Rose Spiegel :: Friday, February 19th, 2010 5:45 pm
Common logic goes that there’s no reason to ever get bored in New York City, especially not on a weekend, and I think this is one of those cases where I’m inclined to agree. If you’re not sure what you’re getting up to, here are some promising shows taking place tonight and tomorrow.

Bright Eyes and Neva Dinova Make Comeback Hand in Hand
Shannon Hassett :: Thursday, February 18th, 2010 4:40 pm
Hey kids, remember your Saddle Creek phase? Or maybe just that time you saw some girl ask Conor to blow coke off her tit backstage at Webster Hall? Well we can all breathe a little easier, because the 2004 Bright Eyes/Neva Dinova collaborative effort, One Jug of Wine, Two Vessels, is up for reissue. What’s more, the two bands have rejoined to create four new tracks for the release, clips for all of which can now be found here. The album hits stores March 23rd, a precursor to what Bright Eyes fans hope will be some upcoming new material of the band’s own. For a March 9th preorder, head on over to Saddle Creek.

In preparation of the arrival of new album Odd Blood, Yeasayer has announced the release of a second free download. “O.N.E.”, a track from the album (which will be available February 9th on Secretly Canadian), is up for the taking at yeasayer.net. The band’s two dates in New York have been sold out for months, but lucky for you, they’ve added a show March 4th at Webster Hall. Short on cash?

Dan Auerbach/ Justin Townes Earle / Jessica Lea Mayfield - Webster Hall Nov. 11th
Daniel Casarella :: Thursday, November 12th, 2009 4:14 pm
You know how it feels when the warm murmur of the crowd is broken by the first licks of the bass from the band? It’s like getting off for concert goers. It turns out that last night’s show at Webster Hall was all about the foreplay. The night started with the soothing voice of Jessica Lea Mayfield, acoustically hypnotizing us. Justin Townes Earle took stage at about 10 o’clock. His undeniable hanky ramble filled the room as the set paced in and out of his latest record, Midnight at the Movies. It’s easy to forget that Justin is just one dude up there singing his heart out. His Nashville charm pelts the crowd with anecdotes and clean cut appearances but his lyrics, as fast as they come, say all the right things to a crowd who is by that time already holding smoke.
