When you stumble upon a band name like Antarctigo Vespucci, you immediately gather you are dealing with qurky minds with silly inclinations. The Brooklyn band that goes under that moniker, however, is not as quirky as we expected. After releasing two EPs in 2014, they put out a full length in May entitled "Leavin’ La Vida Loca," recorded with a $300 budget (it sounds pretty good, hurrah for DIY!). It features a variety of charming songs ranging for power pop number a la Weezer like streaming track "Impossible to Place" to thoughtful sparse folky ballads like opener 2 Days and Losing my Mind, which also features drum machine and synth sounds. You’ll be able to catch them at Shea Stadium on 12.14.
