I came to know CASXIO all because of the lovely bird - YELLE.
They opened for the electropop princess at the El Rey Theatre back in April 2009.
Although it's impossible to top one of YELLE's performances, they sure did come close.
They got me bumpin' and groovin' like no other when they covered Billy Jean - Michael Jackson (RIP).
Naturally, they got me at "Billy Jean is not my lover..."
Ever since, I have been a fan.
But I do admit, it's been a while since I heard their jams... thank god for the shuffle button on my Ipod.
Today, I found myself reliving the glorious beats of CASXIO's "Seventeen" right in the middle of Washington Square Park.
They are officially on my radar again.
And here's what I recently discovered about them...
1. Their EP Seventeen is up on Itunes.
2. FRESH KILL worked with them (!!) to make a kick-ass short movie/music video for their song "Boiling Point."
3. They have you know... good old Sam Sparro #1 on their MySpace Top Friends!
Check them out, if you don't believe me.
