Tuesday night: We’ve got a show at our favorite venue in Williamsburg, Monkeytown. This show is especially exciting because we’re playing the entire new album from start to finish (half of it has never been played out before).

Here’s what the L magazine had to say about the show:

Team Genius’ press shot has six band members squished into a closet, each wearing a brightly colored shirt. The first song posted on their MySpace page is basically a Kool-Aid happy Polyphonic Spree singalong with a teddy bear-themed video to match. So we understand if you want to knock them for pandering to cutesy indie-pop, but it’ll be your loss if you write them off at that. Their other material reveals a band with a sophisticated understanding of pop music, honing in on gliding harmonies and bright, boxy choruses. Tonight they’ll debut material from their new album.

We’ll take that as a compliment. Come check it out!
