Philadelphia Grand Jury | Pianos, NYC | 7.8.2010
Aussie band Philadelphia Grand Jury stopped off in NYC for a few dates on their way to the land down under for a tour in support of their album Hope Is For Hopers. The band hasn’t spent much time here in the states only about 6 shows total. Lately they’ve been splitting their time mainly between Australia and the UK which they’ve called home for the last few months. The band consists of two Aussies in MC Bad Genius and Berkfinger and one dynamite Detroit drummer simply known as Calvin. Their set is high energy fun and a shitload of fun.

City Riots | Pianos, NYC | 8.12.2009

I’ve been a fan of Nashville’s The Features for years now and got the chance to catch them live a few times and they never disappoint. They are currently on the road in support of their latest album, Some Kind Of Salvation and stopped by Piano’s last night. Since they haven’t toured much lately I was definitely not going to miss it.

Hoots & Hellmouth | Pianos, NYC | 2.12.2009
I made it down to Piano’s on the LES to see Philly’s Hoots & Hellmouth. A really great band from Philly that I can’t describe other than “alternative folk-skiffle.” There, I tried. They are putting out a new record this summer! Read the rest of this entry »
