Lands and People - “Everyday” Live at Metro Gallery
I have been meaning to post about these guys since I first heard them on Gluttony Is The New Black and then geeked during CMJ to Jimmy (who also runs the awesome Head Underwater) about my love for them.
“Everyday” is a live recording taken during their show at the Metro Gallery in Baltimore. Listening to it makes me want to drive down to Baltimore and catch a show or harass them enough until they just give up and come to NYC. You can listen to the three track live set from Metro Gallery below. And Jimmy just tweeted me this little goody bag of songs from a Mobtown Studios Microshow session that you can listen to and download here.
FYI for all you city-soft LES/BK/Astoria kids: We’ve got hipsters in DC too. Not that they are any cooler (or cool in any way) but that they exist, are VERY hip and are probably more gangster than other hipsters because they live in Balto. That place scares the living daylights out of me.
Anyways, enjoy this sweet JC Brooks and the Uptown Sound video and try not to rush out to make an answer video about how Brooklyn is the new Brooklyn or some stupid thing like that.
Special thanks to the Red Baron for bringing this to my attention.
