Liars is a three-piece American band consisting of Australian-born Angus Andrew (vocals/guitar), Aaron Hemphill (percussion, guitar, synth), and Julian Gross (drums). Although initially lumped into the New York post-punk revival scene of the early 21st century, they have come to be categorized by their dramatic stylistic shifts between albums, while retaining a consistent interest in rhythm and sound texture.

This past weekend they played at the summer stage in Williamsburgs McCarren Pool which, is basically an urban ruin that is now an improvised park.

KK Barrett and his director pal Patrick invited us over for an afternoon of music in close to 100 degree heat. Why that swimming poll has been allowed to fall into such disrepair is beyond us. It certainly would have been appreciated by all attending.
