After cultivating their skills in Brooklyn, this Indie Rock quartet has landed a comfortable niche in the New York underground music scene, and the word is spreading fast. Their single EP, “All In Time,”(available on itunes) is highly regarded despite the fact that the band has yet to sign to a label. Their music is drenched with ambient melodies and poetic lyrics... this band truely has the drive and pop sensisibilty to make it to the TOP. This is the chance to catch them before you shoulda coulda seen them for under ten bucks. So go see Brooklyn’s very own playing in Manhattan and then Brooklyn this weekend!
