While you can subscribe to the great Lounge Act podcast, the folks at WOXY.com are also cool enough to split these sessions into mp3s for individual consumption (which I used to do a lot until people asked me to stop).
The latest Lounge Act session comes from The Walkmen, who are in town tonight (Tuesday) as the opener for the sold-out Kings of Leon show at Mesa Amphitheatre. And I guess I wasn’t the only one who found this pairing a little awkward given the venue sizes of this tour. Singer Hamilton Leithauser makes it sound like the transition was a little tricky for The Walkmen: “We’ve been adjusting … we were a little lost at the beginning, I think, in the big rooms, playing some of our slow songs. It didn’t really translate that well.”
Sounds just fine here.
