TV On the Radio

Here's what I love about TV On The Radio (well, besides everything, that is): The band has three critically acclaimed albums and a new one on the way, but they opened their set at the MOG/Lexus showcase at the Mohawk with "Young Liars," the title track from their debut EP. Here's what else I love about TV On The Radio: The band always looks like they're having fun. Smiling on stage, loose and fluid, the band ripped through ten tracks, equally balanced among their various releases. Two new tracks, "Will Do" and "Repetition" seemed vital and young. Songs like "Staring At The Sun" and "Wrong Way" seemed lived in and snug. After a year hiatus, the band is as tight as ever, and seemed to relish the opportunity to play a small club in the midday Austin sun. The fans drank it up.
