Living it up when I’m going down

In my Internet wanderings, I came across a little online TV show from the Netherlands called (Behind) Closed Doors. It’s from a network called 3VOOR12 and they basically shove bands into an elevator and have them perform.

I love gimmicks/concepts like this. It creates a strange, intimate atmosphere — especially since the performance are usually acoustic.

To have a taste, here’s one of my favorite new bands, Los Campesinos! performing “Don’t Tell Me To Do The Math(s).” If their Welsh accents aren’t enough to make you love them, their giddiness and their guitar-violin-glockenspiel-toy flute set up is.[kml_flashembed movie="http://youtube.com/v/fZQY9Y5spJM" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]

Also worthy of note — Iron and Wine (aka Sam Beam) performs stuff from his new album.
