Nearly two years ago, Fanfarlo closed their tour at New York’s Webster Hall with a man suspended in the air above the London quintet performing Houdini’s hanging straightjacket escape emulating the act featured in the band’s “The Walls Are Coming Down” video.

Young The Giant 1/20 Mercury Lounge NYC

January 23, 2011 drainu182 1

The southern California rock band Young The Giant played the sold-out Mercury Lounge in New York City on Thursday night. The crowd was filled with as many industry people who love the band as fans.

Evoking happy-go- lucky 60s vibes, Cults, took the stage with an eerily dark presence. Lead vocalist, Madeleine Follin embodied strength and power as she belted soulful jazzy notes. …

Hank & Cupcakes 6/1 Mercury Lounge NYC Review

Hank & Cupcakes is a sweet treat.

When I walked in mid set of Hank & Cupcakes at the Mercury Lounge, I thought it would take me a while to get into the music and vibe. That was indeed not the case. Within thirty seconds of walking in I was moving right along with the rest of the crowd. Hank & Cupcakes is cheekily fun band with charisma that projects of the stage. The Brooklyn based drum …
