Men of property

Man, it's not easy keeping up with all the pop psychedelic acts wandering around these days on the Woodsist and Mexican Summer labels ... I had heard of Real Estate, seen their album in stores, but still haven't gotten around to picking it up. Strange, since their opening set for Kurt Vile was really good. They seem to have an ear for New Zealand style jangle.

Flashless action with, from left to right, guitarist Mathew Mondanile, singer and guitarist Martin Courtney, drummer Etienne Duguay and bassist Alex Bleeker.
