Fitz and The Tantrums, Irving Plaza

Another long Monday but well worth the exhaustion.  Secured a sweet invite to party celebrating the synergy that now is Hertz rental and Live Nation.  Fitz and the Tantrums were the house band for a swift but effective 40 minute set.

Good high energy stuff with Michael Fitzpatrick channelling his inner Darryl Hall.  Big horns and bold sounds with nary a guitar to be found.

Old meets new and alt meets soul.

Fun indeed.

Take a chance:
