CRUSH

Crush is a monthly party built by Jen Lyon showcasing "Dance Bands We Love", a few bands that we are seriously crushing on -- Their music makes us feel like we're bathing in champagne and skipping through meadows. They don't make us dance like say, the cabbage patch or running man, but they move us all the same.

Awesome Pop

Who’s crushin’? We are..for the three bands that hit the stage tonight. Here’s the skinny:

1. Sepalcure started the night:

This duo is Back-to-the-Future. They go “back in the day” with serious vocal-soul-house sounds, merged with tech-dance and then take you all the way forward with their “I’m-dancing-by-myself-and-my-computer” routine that is the deregeur dance move of our times. If you missed it tonight, check it for yourself at their release party in May at Dub War. Seriously, buy a ticket today.

2. Pharoah played 2nd:

Overheard watching Pharoah:

Guy: “What genre is this?”

Girl: “Pop”

Guy: “You mean Awesome Pop”

Our sentiments exactly!

For reference, other bands that are Awesome Pop: Passion Pit, Telephoned, Yes Giantess.

3. Streetlab killed it to close the night:

Best comment about their set: “You looked around and didn’t even realize that girls were in the room, then Streetlab started and there they were.”

Nuff said.
