Man, those kids have really got it.
I should add that the above song is my third or fourth favorite from the Banke's classic 1967 debut album. My first and second favorites, of course, are "Walk Away Renee" and "Pretty Ballerina."
Coming tomorrow: A live performance of my other third or fourth favorite from the Banke LP, as rendered by another band whose members I know personally.

They got it in spades.
Here’s another camera angle from upstairs with less Twiglets:

My fifth favorite song on the Left Banke debut. For me it’s:
1) Pretty Ballerina
2) Walk Away Renee
3) She May Call You Up Tonight
4) Shadows Breaking Over My Head
5) I’ve Got Something On My Mind]

Can't say I was much of a Left Banke fan, outside of Walk Away Renee and Pretty Ballerina but the Twigs are pretty awesome!
Everything I hear from the Twigs is compelling, hooky and simply quite brilliant. I missed their SF gig on Saturday and am bummed as the venue they hit next time should be much, much bigger.

Love this song, and the "harpsichord-y" sounding Rik.
This is a band to keep an ear out for
I could be their Grandfather but, if asked would pony up for equipment.
Something infectious about their set list - let's hope that doesn't evolve
into a Crowes / Oasis situation

Absolutely lovely. For the record, She May Call You Up Tonight is the best song on the Left Banke's debut album :)

The only bad song on the Left Banke album is "What Do You Know."
And, I have played the new Lemon Twigs album everyday for a week. It's stunning!
same show, another angle. this one's the best.
