The Backyard: John Vanderslice


jvbig

Last week our favorite analog darling and Tiny Telephone founder,John Vanderslice, played some shows in NYC. We had the pleasure of having him over to our backyard (or porch) to hear him play one of his best songs, “Fetal Horses,” for our new video performance series, The Backyard. The rain stopped for just a moment while the birds came out and joined in on the sing song fun. Who needs a back up band when there are birds outside?
