Photos: Dragonette played Santos Party House
Nov 08, 09
After we left Sputnik in Brooklyn from the Zambri/Max Justus show this past Thursday, we took an adventure-like jaunt from there to Santos Party House (on the edge of Chinatown and Tribeca), meeting up with Cameron from 'Sup Magazine on the way there and waiting for what seemed like two days for the train to get from one borough to the other. All was paid off for though, as we arrived at Santos about halfway through Dragonette's amazing set of high energy electro pop led by the almost-too-good-looking-to-be-human Martina Sorbara and her unreal and easily identifiable voice. We caught the last six songs of the set--and only actually shot the last song--including two exits and returns for encores, something usually relegated to a band of much larger status (not a dig at Dragonette, but usually that's a U2 or the like move). It was super fun and definitely worth coming out for and this band is definitely in need of more hype behind them so--we're looking at you pop artists who'll take them out with you on tour--let's make that happen.
