I was lucky to catch two amazing gigs with NFOP favourite
Birthdays as I visited Boston a month ago, the moniker of FMLY local Samuel Yager, making excellent, psychedelic pop songs from the decks of his portable suitcase setup. As given to us by
Altered Zones (RIP) back in 2010, "Howolding Girls" (that once upon a time was available on
7 inch) has finally gotten itself some slick visuals, directed by
loroto below.
To our Japanese readers: Birthdays is heading to Japan in just a few days, playing a total of four sets in select Tokyo venues. If you're around at one of these dates, we highly recommend you to drop by. And Boston locals, you know where to be on Wednesday.
4/25 Boston, MA | Gay Gardens (Birthdays' birthday show)
4/29 Shibuya, Tokyo | Festival Express Tokyo
5/01 Tamachi, Tokyo | Studio Cube 326
5/02 Kouenji, Tokyo | UFOclub
5/06 Tokyo | Studio Familia
