You may had enough of our incessant touting of this group (which first began in January).  But just when we think we’ve had enough of the caffeinated drip of Sylvan Esso and their addicting song Coffee, another pot gets stirred and the song’s sounds spill out of our speakers and seize all our senses and synapses.  And it shakes us wide awake with its roiling rhythms.  Such was the case (yet again) today when we caught the duo’s performance below of the song for Soundcheck.  While much of the song’s performance here tracks the recorded version, we see/hear the live possibilities and can imagine an enraptured crowd going entirely-espresso, the band responding in kind, and musical magic ensuing.  Were we to be in Paris, France on, oh say, May 19th, we wouldn’t miss ’em at the Cafe De La Danse when they open for tUnE-yArDs (or at any date of that tour, including in Cali in the first week of June, which you can check out HERE).  In the meantime, check out the performance below and go to Soundcheck HERE to listen to the full interview and additional songs Wolf and Dreamy Bruises.

And make sure you go over to NPR HERE and stream the entirety of their scintillating debut album until it’s release on May 13th.  It’s one of our favorites of 2014, and every song will get under your skin and feet, and leave you jibbing in joy.  Go pre-order it HERE or HERE (on Partisan Records)
