CMJ Party: Sleigh Bells, X-Wife, Phantogram, We Have Band, Electric Tickle Machine

We helped to curate a CMJ party this past Wednesday night at Public Assembly in Brooklyn. The show  featured five amazing, unsigned bands: Sleigh Bells, Phantogram (well, actually they just signed to Barsuk), X-Wife, We Have Band, Electric Tickle Machine… you'll see full Amplifieds with each of them in the coming weeks, but in the meanwhile check out the video above for a taste. Photos below from photographer Rob Loud. 

 
Special thanks for everything: forthebeat, Tainted Blue Recording Studio, Swagger New York, Et Musique Pour Tous, Mark Heaton of Heats, Rob Loud, Hilary Bonaccorsi, Public Assembly, Ian Vens, Everard Findlay, Bridget, Shiva Krishna.
