Dan Deacon made his presence known in NYC over the weekend. Last night it was the Our Band Could Be Your Life concert at Bowery Ballroom. Saturday was a Brooklyn show at 285 Kent, and Friday was his performance as part of The American Museum of Natural History’s “One Step Beyond” series. More pictures and a video from the museum show (which Hesta Prynn also DJ’d), and Dan Deacon & Jimmy Joe Roche’s recently-released video for “Hilvarenbeek”, and some more tour dates too, below…
