Pat The Bunny at the Brooklyn Tea Party

I was going through youtube and found this show, done about a year ago, and thought I'd post it, as it's an excellent performance by one of my favourite current artists. Pat The Bunny, for those who don't know, is an acoustic punk artist, formerly of Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains (a post on which is almost certainly to come), and currently putting out music under the name of the Wingnut Dishwashers Union through his own Spare Change label. The songs below are all from the Wingnut Dishwashers Union side of his discography. If you like what you hear, you can find his website here, where all his songs are free to download on a by-donation basis.

Yndi Halda Live in a Church

Keeping on the topic of Yndi Halda, they have been playing new material at their live shows for the last little while now. The song below was originally recorded last Christmas (seems fitting), and I can happily tell you that it is on par with the majesty of their earlier songs. Just as well, it also marks a departure from their older material with a heavier emphasis on acoustics, as well as its (albeit still sparse) use of vocals. Which isn't to say they can't still fashion an absolutely devastating climax; see Part 2 for details on that.

I guess what I'm getting at is that the song's awesome. Really awesome. And I can't wait to see more of what these guys can do.
