There's nothing like a great live performance that proves a musician's talent is so much more than an intense editing sesh in the studio. The unique voices and powerful presence of artists such as Nathen Willet of Cold War Kids and Justin Vernon of Bon Iver are the reason Kesha doesn't do acoustic shows. So while you lay in bed pretending to do homework and wondering if Friday afternoon mixed drinks are acceptable, check out some bad ass live performances. And make that drink, it's been a long week.

I LOVE the look of your blog. I can't wait to check in and see what you have to say.
The Front Bottoms!! They're awesome. We've actually got a few other Tiny Giants Records artists playing here at the Food Co-op on Friday! If you like The Front Bottoms, you will like The Nico Blues, Vows and Meet Pause... Check it out!
