EV2BK’s CMJ 2010 Selections – Tuesday, October 19

Well it’s that time of year again when the CMJ Music Marathon & Film Festival takes over downtown NYC and Brooklyn for a week of official showcases and boatloads more unofficial parties/DJ sets/booze giveaways featuring around 1,200 bands from all over the country and world.

EV2BK Live Music – (The) Tony Castles at Mercury Lounge

On August 5, 2010, Brooklyn up-and-comers (The) Tony Castles played a great set at Mercury Lounge, sharing the stage with Mon Khmer and Monogold and out-playing them both. Here’s a slide show of Paul, Gabbi, and Willie all rocking new suits and getting down:

No, it’s not Don Johnson you see, but rather (The) Tony Castles drummer Gabbi Wurzel. Also, in more Tony Castles suit-news, keep an eye out for the upcoming video release for the first single, where the suits will be making their screen debut. And don’t forget to make it out to the band’s September 17 record release party at Union Pool, before their fall tour with Tom Tom Club!

EV2BK Live Music – Dawes Perform “When My Time Comes” at Webster Hall

Also from last week, check out this video of Dawes performing a great live rendition of “When My Time Comes” at Webster Hall from their show with Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes at Webster Hall on July 22, 2010.

This ultimate sing-along track is from the band’s debut album, North Hills, which was released last August on ATO Records (co-founded by Dave Mathews). You can download the track free from the band’s website.

EV2BK Live Music – Bear Hands @ The Whitney Museum

Last Friday, Bear Hands and Darlings played a free show at The Whitney Museum as part of their ongoing Whitney Live music series.

Here are a couple shots of Bear Hands playing “Golden,” from their EP of the same name. We’re also excited to let you know that the band’s forthcoming LP will now officially be titled Burning Bush Supper Club, and is set to be released on Cantora Records in the US & Canada on November 2, 2010. Get ready folks!
