With its eclectic line-up, ranging from comedy to death metal to euro-electro-pop, Fun Fun Fun Fest has something for everyone.

Unfortunately, it got lost in the shuffle, and I couldn’t really give it an adequate listen. Fast forward three months to a couple weeks ago when I saw that they would be performing in New York City at Mercury Lounge. I’d never been, and had heard good things, so I figured why not? [READ ON]
