I’m going to see Au Revoir Simone play the Highline Ballroom this Thursday.

If you’re not familiar with this band already, you’re missing out—Au Revoir Simone is an all-keyboard trio with style for miles. They write deceptively simple, understated, and beautifully addictive songs for secret dance parties. I love the arrangement (the way the melody resolves up a half-step to the root, the drum machine beats, haunting bass line, and syncopated horns) of Sad Song (video above).
