The Asteroids Galaxy Tour lands in New York
- Dec 11, 2008
If you've not heard of The Asteroids Galaxy Tour's feisty psychedelic soul yet, listen up. First off, the crew has been taking the world by storm: first in the Apple i-Touch commercial "Around the Bend," then being featured in Nylon Magazine, Anthem, NYLON, GOOD Mag, AOL and Yahoo!... They even debuted a slew of songs on the addictive Gossip Girl. But these days you never know about new bands- sometimes they could have a killer track and then flop in their live show. So we were nailbiting with anticipation when The Asteroids Galaxy Tour landed on our shore, debuting here in NY with two shows. No worries though; they were riotous live. Their music is the perfect elixir for the recession winter slump. Lead singer Mette Lindberg has a distinctive quirky voice, as well as a vibrant, pixie demeanor that effortlessly warmed up the audience. Add an impressive sax section and the shyer Lars Iversen infused various synths, bells and beats on the side and you find yourself a recipe for success. Check out their MySpace.
