2NITE: Real Estate + Widowspeak at 285 Kent



We could not be more stoked to be presenting this show tonight at 285 Kent, in honor of two awesome new additions to Continuum's beloved 33 1/3 series: Television's Marquee Moon by Bryan Waterman, and The Rolling Stones' Some Girls by Cyrus Patell. Widowspeak and Real Estate will play music from their respective forthcoming LPs for Captured Tracks and Domino, both of which are among our most anticipated this year.

Bryan and Cyrus are both my former English professors; I took/Tweeted their course "Writing New York" at NYU last semester — as well as Bryan's course "The Downtown Scene in the '70s" last summer — and was beyond stoked when they asked me to help organize a release celebrating New York's current musical moment. It's especially fitting that we have Real Estate on the bill, as their new record was just mastered by the same guy who did Marquee Moon.
