Do you have kids? Do you miss the days when you could hang at the Mercury Lounge until 2am watching your favorite new band from Portland? Well, you may not be able to stay out late anymore, but you can still see your favorite indie rock bands — and the kids can come too! Kidrockers, a monthly event that takes place in NYC, LA, and now in Philadelphia, offers live day shows on Sundays for both kids and parents. The success of the series has inspired a Kid Rockers pizza from Two Boots that they now serve after every show at Two Boots on Avenue A What makes this pizza so kid friendly? Its covered in a rim of MARSHMALLOWS. Amazing.

Interview with Tally Hall

INTERVIEW

February 24, 2010

Tally Hall is one of my favorite bands, and a great one to see live. Even though we've been listening to their debut album, Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum — released on Atlantic Records in 2008 — for the better part of the last two years, we never get tired of their up-beat tunes, filled with beautiful harmonies and clever songwriting. Having just returned from recording their sophomore record in Los Angeles, the band is set to play Bowery Ballroom on March 4th, part of their US tour with Jukebox the Ghost. Andrew (green tie, keys) sat down with us to discuss the band's eating habits, West Coast grub, and the new tunes.

You just spent a lot of time recording in LA. Did you try any good

Bottle Up & Go's Boilo-Lithowanian Whiskey Citrus

RECIPE

Bottle Up & Go

Bottle Up and Go aren't psychadelic, they steer clear of Caribbean rhythms, and they don't tinker with synthesizers and piles of samplers. These Brooklyn boys stick out like a sore thumb in their chosen burough for playing rootsy, foot-stomping, blues rock. It's refreshing, and we dig it. Check out Bottle Up & Go's homemade winter cocktail that should warm you right up on these cold snowy nights. And be sure to download a free track from the band by clicking HERE

About Us

We are young (early 20's) and hungry (for knowledge! music! art! food!) friends living on (or in areas which border) Manhattan. We moved to the city seeking higher education, and an alternative to frat parties and gin buckets. We prefer a bottle of Chianti to a keg, lunches at City Bakery to a dining hall, Joe's to Starbucks, Frankie's Amatriciana to Batali's. Our uniting factor is our love for food.
