That’s right, Township is back! They did our very first live video Flophouse Session. We forgot to record the video, but here’s the audio. And that’s what really matters, right?

Their CD Release Party is TONIGHT at Great Scott! Let’s be there.

These United States stopped by a few months back, while they were doing an interesting tour – I can’t quite explain the concept, suffice it to say, they used most of the random instruments that we have laying around here for the first time. That includes a Guitar Hero guitar, a very poorly tuned autoharp, and an electronic drum kit of dubious quality. The result is a set of tunes that you probably will never hear performed this way again.

Their new CD, Crimes, just came out this week, and they’ll be at PA’s TONIGHT!

Song List:

* What Do You Want With My Heart

* Slow Crows Over

* We Go Down to that Corner

* First Sight
