Brooklyn - cross the bridge!

Something is happening in Brooklyn. Manhattan has become too expensive for upcoming and alternative artists.

Some years ago one could talk about Manhattan-coolness - i am thinking bands like The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs etc. 

but now all that coolness has moved to Brooklyn and exploded. 

So my advice to you: Go to NY and go to Brooklyn. 

Brooklyn does not only contain cool bands but cool venues (some are a bit against regulations, but still cool).       

a list of some great Brooklyn bands you need to get acquainted with!: 

- Animal Collective 

- MGMT

- Stars like fleas

- The National

- Clap Your Hands Say Yeah 

- Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson

- Grizzly Bear 

- Yeasayer

- J
