The Americans, Christina Courtin, Caroline Smith & more tonight
Le Royale: There are about eight bands paying there tonight and though I’m not sure who goes on when, I bring your attention once again to The Postelles–just returned from playing Lallapalooza–whose 50’s-60’s-inspired pop rock tunes stand out for sounding so much like the real thing that it’s impossible not to enjoy. All four members have the style down, but it makes hell lot of a difference that singer Daniel Balk sounds like a boy right out of that era. I’m equally into Charlie Klarsfeld’s The Americans, who also draw heavily from that same bygone, fruitful time, but the style here is decidedly R&B, complete with claps, piano and horns. Joining these two is Samuel (amongst many others?), who prefers the more modern affiliation with electronica, and who, it is said, will play with a new live band.
Two gorgeous ladies, more great bands, and all mp3 links after the jump.
