Kevin Morby & Hand Habits played 2 nights at Bowery Ballroom (Sunday pics & setlists)

Kevin Morby‘s tour swung through NYC this weekend for sold-out shows at Bowery Ballroom on Saturday (4/21) and Sunday (4/22). We were there for Sunday’s show and Kevin’s set included lots from last year’s City Music and older songs like “Harlem River” which was recently used in a Volvo commercial. Meg Duffy pulled double duty as Kevin’s essential lead guitarist and as tour opener Hand Habits. Her band included Woods/Quilt member John Andrews as well as an interpretive dancer, and on Sunday they covered Simon and Garfunkel’s “The Only Living Boy in New York.” Meg also leapt onto Kevin’s back for mid-song piggyback duet of City Music‘s “Dry Your Eyes.” Setlists from Sunday’s show are below and pictures from the night are in the gallery above.

After their tour together wraps up in early May, Kevin will tour Europe starting in June and is scheduled for Desert Daze in October. Hand Habits, meanwhile, will be touring the West Coast in June with Chris Cohen. All dates are listed below.
