Video: Inside the xx’s intimate Brooklyn residency
This weekend the xx wraps up their ten day residency at Brooklyn’s Park Avenue Armory. Amazingly they only allow 45 people to attend each of these intimate shows. From NY Times:
A pressurized hush in a cavernous space: That was the sensory impression left by the xx toward the end of its mesmerizing performance at the Park Avenue Armory on Wednesday night. Considering the setting and the band’s trademark sound — its drowsy clarity and terse interiority — the feeling itself wasn’t a stretch. What gave it depth was a larger context that often seemed as much an art installation as a concert, and at every moment like a dynamic, self-aware commentary on the issue of scale.
