Jonquil, Tuesday 15 March, 10.00pm - 10.40pm, Latitude, Austin, TX


Vampire Weekend meets Scouting for Girls, with a bit of Rick Astley, sounding like they were obsessed with the first Vampire Weekend album. Didn't sound as might have been expected from how they looked.

The band could've done with a lot more crowd interaction between and during songs, as it all seemed a bit functional, rather than they were out to entertain. The songs themselves were perfectly well crafted, but didn't really jump out and grab the audience. They really needed a killer tune or great bit of crowd interaction to lift the show.
