Who: Princeton from Los Angeles.
What: Named after the street these fellas grew up on in Santa Monica, here’s a track off the upcoming debut called ‘Cocoon of Love‘ by LA’s Princeton. The band is twin brothers Jesse & Matt Kivel, Ben Usen and David Kitz, and in anticipation and support of their debut album, they’ll head out on tour with Ra Ra Riot and other touring acts through the rest of the year. Look for the record on Kanine, Sept 29th.
Song: Calypso Gold. Great with sunshine and rooftop bar-b-ques.
