Last weekend the very awesome, The Soft Pack, played an insane 10 shows in one day! ONE DAY! Gorillavsbear pointed this out, and I watched the video and was blown away by their efforts! Check it :
Now that is how you promote a new album! They are some hardworking musicians, that’s for damn sure. They look like they rock it live and bring a lot of fun energy. I wish I could spend some time on a bands tour. Everyone on their bus looked like they were having the time of their lives! Reminded me of Almost Famous, a bit.
The Soft Pack are playing a free show in NYC today over at Cakeshop. So if your unable to attend the free Hot Chip show at Highline Ballroom (I’ll be there!), go check these boys out. Here is the excellent song “Mexico” which is my personal favorite from their debut album, which I posted here.
