8 NYC Bands You Need to Hear

Since moving to NYC this past January I have learned that The L Magazine is an awesome magazine for free here and they have just released their 8 NYC Bands you need to hear this year. Past years have included The Pains of Being Pure at Heart and one of my favorite artists from last year, High Places. On the list this year are Savoir Adore, Anamanaguchi, The Albertans, Darlings, Pow Wow!, Xylos, the Beets, and Emanuel & the Fear. Click HERE to read the shole article and interviews with the bands. I don't know any of the bands on the list, which is great because that just means more to discover! Also, for my NYC readers check out their North Side Festival coming up in June.
