Another Round of Applause...

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah has just announced some more shows in the U.S. during the fall. I had the good fortune of catching this Brooklyn band last April in Ann Arbor. That show was at the Blind Pig...a smaller club. Now these guys are booking theatre sized venues...a testament to their rising popularity. This is one band that lives up to the recent hype. They do not take a formulaic approach to music....crazy tempos, awkward vocals & bizarre lyrics, all backed up by some rockin' keys & guitars. They know how to get a room jumping...Expect a very upbeat show. Thank God the energy crisis hasn't affected Rock n' Roll, yet! Here is a clip of CYHSY live (which doesn't capture their force).
