Saturday, April 3rd, 2010

Alex Feder, establisher of the XYZ Affair, is now the guitarist for Jaicko, an up and coming sensation hitting the radios across the nation.

Alex is on a cross country acoustic tour with him. All along the way he’s been rocking some Crooked Monkey t-shirts. In the video below, called “fast forward” Alex is belting out the harmonies for Jaicko and repping the Brooklyn Cat t-shirt for us.

Meet XYZ Affair: The newest Boy band sensation

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

Fresh off their last YouTube sensation, “All my friends” (which got over 140,000 hits) the kids from Brooklyn just produced their newest single: Evening Life. It’s a pretty awesome song with a rare beat, for a rock song. The lead singer, Alex Feder, is a pretty phenomenal dancer–I’ve had the pleasure of going to clubs in NYC and seeing girls gawk and scream at his Michael Jackson-like moves. I think he’s even been referred to as the Jewish Chris Brown.

The XYZ affair shows their ability to “put down their instruments and strap on their dancing shoes.” If you’re in NYC you should check them out as they put on an awesome show. At the very least, watch the video, tell your friends to watch the video and look out for them on the scene. They’re pretty famous, they have a Wikipedia article: XYZ affair wikipedia article.

Crooked Monkey’s Funny T-shirts go great with this kind of music. So pick up a funny t shirt, listen to their music and you’re ready for “Evening Life.”

Chill out, Gorilla

I’m all about the Next Big Thing. Which is why I can’t get enough of these guys! Joppa’s new cd “Capes and Umbrellas” is a brand new sound unlike anything else out there. Check them out!

“Joppa is a delicious neo-funk refreshment that always goes down smooth, never ever rough. It makes your hips shake and your booty tingle. It envelopes your ear drums, shoots you with the fun gun, and dismantles all of your inhibitions. It can turn Tuesday morning into Saturday night. And it always knows how to make things all right. With a couple cool cats and one dirty dog, you just gotta give em’ a stage and they’ll keep the party going all night long. So welcome to Joppaland, stay as long as you like, and if your soul is bouncing, then the rhythm is right.”
