NewsBand Of Horses headline free Brooklyn showBand Of Horses, Annuals and Oxford Collapse played the fifth Jelly NYC Pool Party at McCarren Pool in Brooklyn yesterday (July 22). Sub Pop's Oxford Collapse opened the show in late afternoon, and were joined late in their set on percussion by Keith Murray of We Are Scientists, while North Carolina's Annuals competed with water slides and long beer lines to hold onto the crowd. Despite muffled sound during their set, South Carolina headliners Band Of Horses thrilled the 3,000 strong crowd with previews of tracks from soon-to-be-released 'Cease To Begin' as well as a cover of the Mick Jagger and Keith Richards-penned song 'Act Together'. Several local musicians watched the show including Grizzly Bear, while members of Foals and Editors were also spotted. The pool parties continue next Sunday with headliners TV On The Radio supported by Celebration, Miles Benjamin and Anthony Robinson. Franz Ferdinand make their return Franz Ferdinand marked a storming return to their hometown tonight (June 4) by showcasing five new songs at a secret gig. The Glaswegian four-piece, who last appeared in the UK at the Carling Weekend: Reading And Leeds Festivals last summer, treated just 700 fans to a special show at the Grand Ole Oprey country and western club. In keeping with the country theme, singer Alex Kapranos arrived onstage dressed in a black spotted neckerchief as the band rolled through new tracks 'Anyone In Love', 'New Thrill', 'An English Goodbye', 'Favourite Lie' and 'Turn It On'. The new material marked a synth driven change of direction for the band who have been away for eight months. Referring to their hiatus, Kapranos said: "We've not seen you for a while. How have you been?," as he received massive cheers when the band launched into crowd favourite 'Take Me Out'. Of the new material, 'New Thrill' received the warmest reaction from the fans as did old favourites 'Matinee' and '40'. The band later surprised the crowd during the close of their set when they invited a girl in the crowd onstage to join drummer Paul Thomson on stick duties. The show was the first of two gigs at the venue before the band head over to New York next week to test out new material at the Bowery Ballroom. The band are also due to make a rare appearance alongside The White Stripes, The Police and The Flaming Lips at the Bonnaroo Festival in Tennessee later this month. Franz Ferdinand played: 'Michael' 'Come On Home' 'Anyone In Love' 'Shopping For Blood' 'Walk Away' 'Take Me Out' 'New Thrill' 'Matinee' 'An English Goodbye' 'Fallen' '40' 'Favourite Lie' 'Turn It On' 'Outsiders' |
