The other day Luke and I where having lunch, and as happens when we get together, the topic of music comes up, which always leads us to sharing something we have heard recently. This week, in one video no less, he got me hooked on this band Fitz and The Tantrums. They have a huge sound, without any guitars??(how could that be??), a Hall & Oats throw back vocal sound and very new 80's music vibe. The horn and organ instruments they use to fill out the sound is fantastic. Noelle Scaggs vocals and energy work so well with Michael Fitzpatrick that this band sounds as good live, if not even better, then on their records. I have posted the original video that hooked me and then one of groups live performances from Seattle for KEXP 90.3. It is well worth the time to go thru all the of the performance video from the Seattle set before you make up your mind on this band...be warned you will get hooked. Thankfully the latest album sells for under $9.00 on itunes.
