At Saturday, October 1’s late night show, Bright Light Social Hour and Black Taxi (in the picture) brought Mercury Lounge down with an fantastic show. Austin’s BLSH, who whipped the crowd into a sweaty dancing frenzy with their infectious grooves, more than warmed up the audience in preparation for Black Taxi. It was the perfect way to celebrate the band’s new single, "Tightrope” (check out the track below), which they performed among other already addictive new tracks, amplifying the anticipation of their sophomore album, "We Don”t Know Any Better," scheduled for release in early 2012, and fan favorites, “Love Song For a Ghost,” “Shoeshine,” and “It’s a Ball.” During the closer, “Up Here for Thinking (Down there for Dancing),” the band welcomed the audience to join them for an on stage dance finale, ending the show on the highest of notes. Don’t miss Black Taxi as they traverse the east coast and perform thrice for CMJ at The Studio at Webster Hall, Bowery Electric, and Mercury Lounge on Octoer 18, 20, and 22, respectively. –Meijin Bruttomesso
