About: I first heard of this band a few years ago... and well let me tell you - a mom, a dad & a little one have never been quite so eclectic. The story of the Trachenburg's goes a little something like this:
*Family goes garage saling
*Family finds old projector slides
*Family purchases slides, writes songs about slides - and performs live as the slides advance from behind.
All songs are fictional tales of their perception of what just might have happened in those slides. A very interesting and unique concept that you are sure not to simply stumble upon all too often. I highly urge you check out this performance - as a bit of nostalgia is sure to be in store - something reminiscing an old red plastic View-Master... Oh, the toys of yesteryears - what fun!!!

(Note: Unfortunately, they are supporting headliner Kate Nash - so I can't promise a full and lengthy show, but I'm sure it will be worthwhile regardless.)
