Sunday's Song

Hey guys!  I am back to the daily grind and schedule of work again, we started back up officially August 2nd...so that means I will be back to some more consistent blogging.  I don't have that long of a break during summer away from teaching, so I really wanted to take that time to unplug {as much as humanly possible in the 21st century} and enjoy the fresh air, travel and spend plenty of time with friends!

On Friday night, I headed over to "East Williamsburg" (which is realtor speak for Bushwick) and went to The Acheron to see Braveyoung.

When we arrived at the venue, which...since I moved here has been the first place in NYC to remind me of Olneyville, Braveyoung was set up and ready to play.

The music was dreamy and pretty, with builds and releases that reminded me of the ocean.  It made me feel like Braveyoung could easily write the score to a Pan's Labyrinth-esque film.


The Light Narrows
