We'd given fair warning about of Montreal's Skeletal Lamping stage setup, but we weren't prepared for all the stops they pulled out for their show this past Friday at Roseland, NYC. Like, for instance: By now you may have heard that Kevin Barnes sang "St. Exquisite's Confessions" while sitting on and stroking a white horse. Understandably, the place lost it. (We have photos to prove it.) While up there on his steed, Barnes said "New York City, of Montreal has arrived!" That said, no other city should expect the horse, it's not on their rider -- this was a NYC-only treat.

If you wanna do Fashion Week right, there's a simple trick: know which bars all the "beautiful" people will be at, and then avoid them all so hard. It's a simple trick that works wonders if you love to avoid terrible humans. Every so often, though, one of these designers/stores/whathaveyou will throw an afterparty with a musical act that isn't L...

Kevin Barnes is already road-testing new tunes because when is KB not writing new tunes, but as usual his mind and muses are moving a few gears too fast for a promo cycle still chewing on the schizophrenic pop freakouts of the excellent, if not Hissing Fauna-excellent, Skeletal Lamping LP. This new video for "Mingusings" falls very neatly inside...
