GIVERS - Up Up Up (Remix)

It’s hard to believe an act like Givers is still under the radar. While still a young band, they’ve already managed to pack venues in their home state of Louisiana, and land a tour opening for indie darlings, The Dirty Projectors. Givers’ affinity for auxiliary percussion, nontraditional instruments, and a natural tendency to play their asses off, help the band create bouncing, danceable, harmony-laden world-pop.

At their core, the band’s rhythmic focus and flawless guitar interplay brings to mind the sunny, fun-loving cousin of Battles, while their big harmonies and tasteful electronics give bands like Ra Ra Riot and Discovery runs for their money.

Givers won’t remain a secret for long, Having recently recorded a new full length, and with a whole slew of tour dates ahead of them, the band is due their spotlight.

Check out Givers playing a live version of “Saw You First” from their EP, Givers EP.
