Nov 26 : "Long Run" - Darling Din (Brooklyn)

((Quick Note ::: I've seen some interesting bands over the past few months, but am running out of time to write about them, so this is a "Quick Note".))

A week ago Friday I went to Pianos and saw three-piece Brooklyn band "Darling Din". Here is a good sample of their music, "Long Run", released in 2016.






Darling Din's web pages don't show any other show coming up soon, but here is the click to their Facebook page so you can keep an eye on what's next. ::: Darling Din on Facebook (CLICK HERE).

Nov 12 : J. G. Wentworth ((updated))

I love these musical ads. I know nothing about the company, "J. G. Wentworth". I have never used them nor do I know anyone who has. But their advertising musical productions are great. So here are my three favorites:

The first one I ever saw was the "Opera" version:::





Next up is a variation on the operatic style. It is the "Bus" version:





And finally, the third video is the "Boyband" version:





================================


UPDATE ! Nov 15 2017 ::: The third video above was actually the winner of a contest JG Wentworth ran to create a new ad. The group calls themselves "The JG Boyz". Here they are in an interview with their local tv station:::

Nov 05 : "Cadillac" - Eldest Son (Brooklyn)

They sounded good, but I didn't get to hear the whole show. Brooklyn band "Eldest Son" was only into their first few songs, when I had to end my visit to Muchmore's in order to make the last NJT/SEPTA train home. I'm sure I will see them again, and for a whole show.

The band has some interesting work on line, with more emphasis on the percussion work than in the live show. The online version also has more of a crispness. Here is "Cadillac", released early this year, in January :::
