LIVE DOWNLOAD: Irving "If You Say Jump, I Will Say No" LIVE [in Spaceland]

So there's this band in Silverlake called Irving. They've been around for a  while. Kind of like the city council of the music scene out here. Everyone knows 'em and likes 'em. We did a live record with them last year and it turned out to be their last Spaceland show as the band as it was. Turns out Alex the bass player had been working on his own project called Sea Wolf and it got to the point where he wasn't able to do both. Everyone supportively agreed that Alex doing Sea Wolf full-time was the best thing to do for everyone. They're all still great friends and I wouldn't be surprised if a reunion happened at some point in the future.... From all that that Irving decided to for a new band called The Afternoons.

The Afternoons= Irving-Alex+Tom Biller+Operatic Singer(Claire)+2nd drummer(Sam)

They just played their first night of the Spaceland Monday Night Residency (FREE, drink specials, rad band, good people) and it was pretty damn amazing. They'll be playing every Monday for the rest of June (4 more!). We're gonna be recording one of these nights too. For those of you who don't know Tom, he's worked as the right hand man of Jon Brion. He also happened to work on the Irving Covers EP that we put out as well.

For your enjoyment and to give you an idea how very good this band is, check out the download below.
