I haven’t mentioned these Brooklyn boys since The 12 Best Bands I Loved at SXSW post so I thought it was perhaps worth a quick post about their album Technicolor Health.
Harlem Shakes debut album is nothing but a fun collection of bright and breezy indie tunes and as John Butt noted in his State review – all catchy summer tunes.
The singer has this cheesy wedding-band vibe that I quite like. EVERYONE likes cheesy wedding bands right?. A superb live band too. Here’s my two favourites from the album.
