Livestream is proud to announce an exclusive Live performance by Chairlift on the New Livestream Monday December 12th at 8:30 PM ET. For many it will be the first time see Chairlift perform songs from their new album Something set to be released on January 24th on Columbia Records worldwide, and January 23rd on Young Turks in the  UK. (You might remember their song Bruises from the ipod nano commercial – if you liked that – you’ll love what they have coming)

WOW CMJ was out of control this year. We had the pleasure of streaming 50+ bands that were part of the NYC festival, providing you with the most extensive live coverage anywhere around. But wait there’s more! This week is another show stopper with 20+ more bands streaming right to your computer, we’ve got our highlights below but as always keep an eye on our concerts page for more updates as they come in.

Tonight we’ve got Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boy playing live from the Viper Room in LA. His Solo album Soul Punk just came out last week and we’re so excited to hear these new songs live. Make sure you RSVP for the show so you don’t miss it live.

Next we have another great show this time it’s singer songwriter Andrew Belle playing from his hometown of Nashville TN. We can’t wait to for a chance to see how his home crowd welcomes him back from a long US tour. RSVP here

Finally we have MC Lars live from The Knitting Factory Brooklyn. He calls himself the originator of “post-punk laptop rap”, and has pretty unbelievable list of acts he’s supported on tour including Nas, Lupe Fiasco, T-Pain and so many more. We’re not really sure what to expect but that makes us all the more excited to check it out! RSVP Now
Check back in Monday for next weeks show!

Welcome back to our weekly music blog! Picking 3 highlights was near impossible between the awesome bands coming to the Livestream studio and the ones working with our concerts department.  As always you should keep an eye on our concerts page as we’re constantly adding to the calendar.

This Monday the 10th we have Shinji Masuko, founder of the great Japanese modern psychedelic band DMBQ and member of the legionary band The Boredoms.  His solo performance is unlike anything he as done before, these meditative, swirling compositions are not to be missed. RSVP

Next we have a live performance and Q+A with The Ready Set on Tuesday the 11th.  This performance is on the release day of the band’s new record FEEL GOOD NOW and they’ll be celebrating by playing new jams & old favorites. This is a MUST for any fan of punk music! RSVP

Finally on Wednesday we have a special performance at the Livestream studio by Kate Voegele. She’ll be stopping by before her show at the Highline Ballroom in NYC to play a few songs and chat with her fans. Its always a treat to have live music in the office and we’re so excited for this performance. RSVP
