Since 1999, Longwave has been one of the New York Citys leading exports. After the success of Endsongs , their 2000 independent release, the band signed with RCA Records and began work with producer Dave Fridmann, known for his efforts with the Flaming Lips and Mercury Rev. The resulting album, The Strangest Things, led to critical raves and tours across all parts of this earth with the likes of The Strokes and The Vines. Longwave followed up on the success of The Strangest Things by entering the studio in 2004 with famed producer John Leckie, whose work with Radiohead and Pink Floyd endeared him to the critical taste of the band, and Theres a Fire was released in 2005.

Also Performing:
As with Ray Davies classic 1968 homage to English hamlet life, Grand Animals, the ambitious new album from New York City trio Robbers on High Street, is a wry, literate pop affair filled with oddball characters (a livery cab driver in Keys to the Century, a small-time crook in Crown Victoria, and a young boy who crashes his bike in The Ramp) whose stories are told through bright, music hall melodies that recall the best of 60s British guitar pop and 70s AM radio rock.
