Streets of Laredo is the kind of folk band Brooklyn was made for. A quartet that grabs what instruments they have around, and howls at the moon collectively over broken hearts, getting stuck in crappy situations, and wondering about how the hours pass by. Singing almost entirely in harmony, this band is every bit a family… they keep traveling back and forth from Brooklyn to their home in New Zealand where they do most of their recordings. Latest record ‘Girlfriend’ captures this familial intimacy, continuing their instrument-sharing traditions and starting some new ones. They won’t be back in NYC until April, but you can check out their schedule here for future shows. – Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets)
