Sunday, February 26th, 2012The Rejection Show Valentine’s Day Heartbreak Haven!
Monday, February 6th, 2012Bring a date or find one there. There will be Pie!

The New York Times:
“The Rejection Show” lays all the cards on the table, putting the rebuffed work of writers, artists and even lovers on display. Jon Friedman, editor of the anthology “Rejected: Tales of the Failed, Dumped and Canceled” (Villard) and the show’s host, sets these castoffs in a new light with the help of comedians, storytellers, artists and musicians. The next show is on Feb. 14, just in time for unrequited lovers, featuring live music by the Defibulators.
($10 to $12; 8 p.m., doors open at 7:30; Littlefield, 622 Degraw Street, between Third and Fourth Avenues, Gowanus, Brooklyn)

It’s a tremendous bill of great music including our good friends Jan Bell & The Maybells and the Two Man Gentleman Band, whom we haven’t shared a bill with since our first US tour many moons ago. Also on the bill will be old-school jazz from the George Cole Quintet and a fiery set from bass-slappin’ gypsy folk rockers, Fishtank Ensemble. Order of performers is listed as on the flyer; Defibs should take the stage around 11. Come support yer Defibulators for this muy importante show!
Tiny Apartment Concerts
Sunday, December 26th, 2010We recently had the pleasure of playing the Tiny Apartment Concert series in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. The apartment was indeed tiny, but the good time vibe was huge. The crowd consisted of a hand-picked group of only the elite-est of the elite tastemakers and entrepreneurs in NYC. We’re talking music apprecianados, international diplomats, fish oil tycoons, pet fashionistas…you name it. The creme de la creme of who’s who and why’s why. Somebody said Kanye was there with Vladimir Putin, but I wouldn’t have known because the place was so damn crowded. Everyone of course contributed to the smorgasbordial pot luck and Buffalo Trace provided the bourbon in sippy pouches…naturally.
Thanks to Elayna, Lauren, and everyone who concocted this unique, badass event.
