The Breakfast Club

Sep 24

Earlier this summer, Tim Kubart sent me some early mixes of tracks from his new record Home.  I checked a few out and sent him back a five-word email:

Breakfast Club is a hit.

I think I was right, and this video — brand new today — makes me even more sure.

 

Remember, he’s here in Austin on October 3 for a record release show at the Domain.  It’s free, and details are here.
