'Heavy' mettle

 

The debut record from the Dublin-based Sprints came out a few weeks back (more info here). 

The video is for "Heavy." 

And you can catch them live out at Zone One at Elsewhere in Brooklyn on March 21-22. (Oh wait — that March 21 date is sold out.)

Pills 'n' Thrills

People are now Making Music

Oh, in case you were wondering why people were randomly making music today... it's because today is Make Music New York, which according to the publicity stuff, is "a unique festival of free concerts in public spaces throughout the five boroughs of New York City, all on June 21st, the first day of summer. MMNY takes place simultaneously with similar festivities in more than 460 cities around the world — a global celebration of music making."

EV Grieve reader Sam notes a band called My Glorious Mess is now playing on East Third Street just East of First Avenue...

Here are two more shots of My Glorious Mess via jdx ...

Here's the website with the rundown of all the performances in the East Village this evening.
