The center of the universe on Sunday night was Union Pool in Williamsburg. TV On The Radio headlined a hurricane relief concert, but the real revelation of the night (for me at least) was an amazingly tight and energetic band from Baltimore called CELEBRATION, who did an intense set of angst-filled new wave rock. You will be hearing a lot about this band in the coming months.
In NYC you have two chances to check them out this week:
September 16, at Beggars & Matador Records 2005 CMJ Party
at Scenic, 25 Avenue B (btwn 2nd & 3rd)
September 17, at the Fader/Adult Swim CMJ
at Lounge, 175 Orchard Street
Check out their myspace page for more tour dates and a song sample.
Also, be on the look out for their debut album produced by David Sitek of TV On The Radio coming out October 11 on 4AD Records.
