Playtime!: Golden Bloom & Neutral Uke Hotel Perform on North 6th Street in Brooklyn @ CMJ 2010


We had the pleasure of filming the boys of Golden Bloom / Neutral Uke Hotel during CMJ for our Playtime! performances. The band was ready to play wherever they could and we think hands down, this is our favorite set in the series so far. It examplifies what we strive for with Playtime! The people walking back and fourth fit perfectly with the songs and it oddly seems like they should actually be there. Nothing got in the way of the boys when it came to pouring their hearts and souls into the music…not even the dog that was sitting by watching them. Well, maybe he did. Check out the two videos below. One song they play as Golden Bloom and the next, as Neutral Uke Hotel.

Golden Bloom “Doomsday Devices”

Neutral Uke Hotel “Holland, 1945”

Playtime! : Jukebox the Ghost “Half Crazy” & “Beady Eyes on the Horizion” @ McCarren Park, Brooklyn

Friday morning during CMJ we were lucky enough to have the pleasure of filming Tommy from Jukebox the Ghost. Originally our plan was to film by the Williamsburg Waterfront in Brooklyn, but as it was super cold that afternoon, we headed over to McCarren Park where he played us two songs on his banjo. Playing “Half Crazy,” and “Beady Eyes on the Horizion,” this was possibly my favorite moment of CMJ 2010. Take a peek at the videos below. You sure don’t want to miss out on these!

Golden Bloom and Neutral Uke Hotel, 2 bands made up of primarily of the same friendly fellows, took the stage at the Cameo Gallery in Brooklyn onm Thursday night and packed the room with diehard followers and new fans wanting to see what these guys are all about.
