Bearsuit October 13, 2008 Cake Shop – Flac and MP3 Downloads

October 14, 2008

Bearsuit‘s US debut was worth the wait. Ironically on Columbus Day, eighteen months after an incident where Bearsuit was prevented by immigration authorities from performing at SXSW 2007, the Brits’ performance last night at Cake Shop was clear evidence why Bearsuit was one of the late John Peel’s favorite bands. The co-ed caped serenaders eased through forty minutes of their best quirky, intelligent and hook-heavy brit-pop and left the crazy crowd begging for an encore that never came. But as Lisa pointed out to the crowd before the last number, Bearsuit will return for more NYC dates later this month. In fact, Bearsuit will perform at the NYCTaper CMJ Showcase at Cake Shop on Thursday October 23.

We recorded this concert from our standard location at Cake Shop — with the DPA microphones attached to the front wall about 10 feet from the PA speakers. The result is a recording of great intimacy and clarity. Enjoy!

There is an excellent review of this concert on the Soundbites Blog [here].
