hinds at rough trade

vamos with the ladies of hinds, as they have captured the hearts of new yorkers with their infectious garage pop rock. their last trip to new york had folks waiting on line in the cold despite not being able to get into the venue. after the bowery ballroom show sold out this time around, the chicas added a free show at rough trade, noting on their facebook page that “Leave Me Alone for everyone babys.“

carlotta cosi danced and assumed the rock stance several times. she revealed that they literally landed three hours ago before hitting the stage. you could tell these ladies have great fun on stage which translates to their fans.

sleigh bells at rough trade east

best first london in-store: sleigh bells at rought trade east. shar's been griping about how there isn't much free music in london. lo and behold who was playing an in store at rough trade east. one fine duo from my "home" city, brooklyn. i'd missed them way back at a gig at santos and boy is shar kicking herself. alexis can get a crowd dancing, even the most too cool for school brits. alexis is a bolt of pure energy, like a karen o 2.0. no joke. the twosome played the bulk of their latest album "treats". my favs = "tell 'em" and "beach girls". here's a good gig they threw down at sxsw.
