The Virgins
The Virgins’ Tuesday night show at The Annex is one you won’t want to miss! The NYC-based buzz band has received a great deal of attention and rave reviews from the international music press. Take one listen to their self-titled debut, and it’s not hard to understand why.
The Guardian UK says “These New York indie kids sound like a giant love-in between CBGBs and Studio 54,” and projects that with their danceable indie rock-funk they “could be America’s Franz Ferdinand.” Their standout hit, “Rich Girls” was featured in an episode of Gossip Girl (along with 4 other Virgins tunes) and was named one of Rolling Stone magazine’s top 100 songs of 2008.
Check out The Virgins performing “Rich Girl” on French TV…
…and an interview with the band.

Tenderoni – Chromeo (could it get any easy to move those hips to)
Looking Good in Leather – Cody Chesnutt (leather, sex, need I say more)
She Only Sleeps – David Byrne (what other song croons you into bed while discussing a stripper, Byrne is a GENIUS)
Pit Stop – Lovage (if The Automator, Patton, and Jennifer Charles don’t scream sex I am completely clueless)
Is it the French in general or was that cameraman really in to drummers?

Too obvious…?
