The Jets= Tigercity: Slide with me, I wanna move your body.


This past year Brooklyn has shat out about a billion amazing bands, at this point you’d think that the area would be all dried up but no, Tigercity has been birthed. Tigercity is yet another band from the wonderous Brooklyn, NY area. Now from what I know they came from Massachusetts and then moved to New York, maybe there’s something in the air there. You move there as an at best mediocre musician and song writer only to realize that the second you touch down on the Brooklyn soil you’re a genius!
Upon the first listen of what seems to be their hit song, ‘Are you Sensation’, I’m pretty sure that my ass started to move and I may or may not have began to chair dance, I felt like I was in Miami Vice.
‘Are you Sensation’ is funky and flippant it makes you want to move your body and make love at the same time. If the Jets and Earth, Wind, and Fire had offspring it would be Tigercity.
So much synth, so much soul, and so much uhh! Although their five song EP is not all funky, it’s the perfect spring time accessory and definitely something you should pick up, your friends will be impressed. They’re so new that you can’t find their record in stores or on Itunes yet but if you hit up www.myspace.com/tigercity you can order it from there.
