We Are The Wiley at The Shank
July 9th, 2009Live visuals for the We Are The Wiley benefit concert at The Shank in Brooklyn on July 9th, 2009. The show was organized to raise money to help local musician Jon Wiley pay some staggering medical bills and help raise awareness about the plight of uninsured artists. Lightspeed Champion, Adam Green and Chairlift performed.
P.S. The wall behind the stage was green. Result: very green visuals.
Adam Green’s “Emily” is real good song.
