Get Out Tonight: Department of Eagles at Neumo's

Tonight, atmospheric folk-pop group Department of Eagles close out their winter mini-tour at Neumo's. The band can kinda be considered a Grizzly Bear side project, since it features GB guitarist Daniel Rossen along with his friend Fred Nicolaus (and since Chris Taylor and Christopher Bear of Grizzly Bear sometimes play with them live). On the other hand, these Eagles precede the Bear, having formed in 2001, a full three years before Grizzly Bear got together and a full five years before the release of their much-adored album Yellow House.

In Ear Park is the latest release from Rossen and Nicolaus, and we kindly direct you to the La Blogotheque Take-Away Show above, featuring the duo wandering around NYC's Chinatown while playing a selection of tunes, including the lovely love song "No One Does It Like You." The moody, harmony-heavy album's been getting good reviews, with the New York Times praising its "sparse acoustic moments and lavishly layered pop--gorgeous and suffused with mystery," while Pitchfork gave it an 8.3. Local neo-Appalachians the Cave Singers open.
