Yellow Ostrich
"Ghost"
Playing on Wednesday at Bowery Ballroom
Get: Tickets ($15) | Directions
Yellow Ostrich frontman Alex Schaaf is a classically trained musician, but his band plays an appealing brand of rough-around-the edges indie pop. The group’s first records experimented with layering vocals and percussion, but their new EP moves in a more electronic direction. Even so, Schaaf's winding, intricate melodies still command attention.
Download "Ghost," the title track of Yellow Ostrich's new EP here. In the video below, watch the band play "WALE" live at Pianos in 2011. The band plays Bowery Ballroom Wednesday night.
