ted leo and the pharmacists

me and mia

i always had rather mixed feelings about ted leo but he finally won me over with the hearts of oak album, which is just hell of a pop album. for some reasons i think of billy bragg when i listen ted leo. but the kind of billy bragg if billy bragg was more fun. i managed to catch ted leo and the pharmacists play an outdoor show at east river park this summer and it was all good fun. not at least thanks to some old man that kept trying to get people to dance. ted leo put on a fine show but sea ray sort stole the show (album doesn't live up to their live show but try quiver). But back on topic, ted leo and the rx have a new album titled shake the sheet which is a little disappointing but does contain some excellent popsongs... like the above song.
