“This is a celebration, bitches!”
These words did not come fro the mouth of Rick James. Or Dave Chapelle. At least not last night in Burlington, Vermont, whereMatt and Kimcelebrated the release of their excellent new record,Sidewalks, with a sweaty, unhinged live set at Higher Ground. In what looks to be one of our last secret shows of the year, Matt’s words proved to be prophetic: This was an all out bash.
The night started on an unplugged note as sing songwriterFletcher C. Johnsontook the stage, and they heated up when the eclectic punk duoJavelincame on. Playing songs from their debut,No Mas, they were a suitable, if not slightly dissimilar, warm up for what was going to come next. Strutting on stage with a couple of beers in hand, Matt and Kim’s live show, as is often the case, did not disappoint.
This is one of the only live acts that can promise an interlude in their set for a crowdsurfing booty dance, and that says a lot. Each song that the band played felt seismic and celebatory, so it was a good thing that we live streamed the whole thing as it went along. In case you missed it, there are more photos from the night below.
