Jayson Green had sung in a lot of bands. Like, a lot. Panthers, Violent Bullshit, Cheeseburger, and the legendary hardcore band Orchid. There are probably more. He’s always been smart and hilarious, never quite cynical though always quick to point out the absurd. Now in a bandleader role he has released 12" on DFA records was produced by James Murphy, Nick Millhiser and Andrew Raposo Now he’s delivered us a classic a-side in “Local Jerk,” which sounds like a party because it was actually recorded during one: tight disco drums, big claps, a neck-rolling baseline, horns, and group vocals. You can literally hear the bottles clinking. The head trip is the b-side, “I Need Love,” which is a most terrifying, ridiculous piece of nightlife satire. The live band is a supergroup of sorts featuring members of LCD Soundsystem, Holy Ghost!, Midnight Magic, Les Savy Fav and more. Led by Green they are a big band with a big presence. This is their Toronto debut having come off sold out shows in their homebase of New York City. After the shows you can catch them at Green's new Junction wine and cocktail bar Doc's Green Door Lounge. - Jayson Green (Orchid, Panthers, Cheeseburger) - Nick Millhiser (Holy Ghost!, LCD Soundsystem) - Nancy Whang (LCD Soundsystem, The Juan Maclean) - W.
