The Debfibulators
The Defibs are Brooklyn’s kings of alt-country—just minus the “alt.” This is true, fiddle-driven Americana here. Their honest spin on rootsy bluegrass is refreshing and fun. With all the proggy pretenses stripped away and no pesky Jim O’Rourke-types complicating their sound, the Defibulators transport you to a Louisiana porch where ma’s vittles kiss the air and a washboard ain’t just for cleanin’.
Don’t be quick to label the Defibs revivalists though—their sound is as fresh as it is traditional. The New Yorker branded them “citibilly,” the perfect name for a band that’s equal parts Mast Brothers chocolate and down-home possum pie.

We had a blast at the Ossipee Valley Music Festival last weekend.
We played a rager of a barn dance on Saturday night and met some great Mainers.
One of them was photojournalist, Greta Rybus who asked us for an impromptu interview for her website.
Read the interview and see her pictures at Who I Met.
Thanks Greta!

new look…
Tuesday, June 15th, 2010On our 24 hour drive back to NYC from the Gulf Coast we stopped at a Wal-Mart to fix the AC in our van.
While we were there we tried on some dope specs – now we’re gonna start a new indie-art-rock band as a side project.

HEE-HAW Screening and Texas Margaritas!
Sunday, May 9th, 2010
Djs Pancho & Lefty (aka Bug and T-Bone Bernardo) will be playing vintage country tracks and screening a classic episode of HEE-HAW tomorrow night (5/10) at Nita Nita in Williamsburg. It’s Mexabilly Monday at Nita, and Sam and the gang will be serving up Tex-Mex tapas specials (like mashed sweet taters w/ chorizo), and $4 Lone Star Margaritas (trust us on this one). Sip one in the garden, if we may suggest while listening to the golden country sounds. We’ll be there from 8pm on.
