Family Time played the final night of their 3 week Union Hall residency on Tuesday night.
Who's Family Time?
"A group of producers and musicians dedicated to creating awesome material for people to enjoy. They have already finished two works in 2008, the first of which - The Tale of Season 4 and the Oceanic Six- is the first album of the new genre Recap Rock, presenting episode by episode musical recaps of season 4 of Lost, the hit ABC TV program. They’ve just posted the recap of the Season 5 premiere. The second Family Time full length is Champollion, a space-opera inspired by the musings of Carl Sagan that tells the story of the telepathic night watchman on a spacecraft who becomes a principle figure in future mythology. They performed Champollion as a multi-media ballet with visual projections and a team of dancers from the Mark Morris Group in the 2007 NYC Fringe Festival. They are also the creators of the emmy-nominated Pitchfork TV show Juan’s Basement."
Reads like a gimmick, but sounds pretty awesome. See for yourself.
And while opener Hospitality may not be playing recap rock, they're indie pop is pretty incredible as well. In fact, Stereogum very recently named them "Band to Watch."
