Lazyeyes have been on the NYCTaper radar for quite a while. Their 2013 self-titled EP was a breath of fresh air — four bright, smart and energetic tracks that brought the band a nice bit of press and some momentum. We made several attempts to get the band on the site at that point but it never quite worked out for one reason or another. Our persistence has been rewarded because last week, the band released their second EP New Year which is a similarly high quality indie-gaze collection and the initial reviews are all positive. Lazyeyes short East Coast tour in support ended with the EP’s release show at Baby’s All Right. The group played a tight thirty-five minute set that consisted of the entire new EP, three of the four songs from the debut EP, and one new song. The set was so well received by the crowd that Lazyeyes was called back for an encore. We’re streaming the final track of the set proper, a strong version of the new “Adaptation”. Lazyeyes will next play NYC at the Brooklyn Night Bazaar on January 31.
This set was recorded by House FOH Rubes, who provided a superb live mix of the multitrack. There are also cardioid microphones installed on the lighting rig about 15 feet in front of the stage. In post-production, I mixed the two sources and the results are quite excellent. Enjoy!
