The Phenomenal Handclap Band - NEW album + download '15 To 20' MP3

New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Friendly Fire Recordings/ Phenomenal Handclap Band Official Website) - The Phenomenal Handclap Band is a tight-knit aggregation of musicians and artists from Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Download "15 To 20" MP3 from the album Live, The Phenomenal Handclap Band is distilled to an eight-member powerhouse, an eye-popping spectacle that overwhelms the senses. It pulses with a savage rhythm section that provides the ultimate foil for cascading guitars and electrified washes of organ and synthesizers. Their delirious sermonizing whips crowds into a charismatic frenzy. Needless to say, their live shows are more akin to a spiritual church revival than an actual rock show.

The self-titled album is set for release June 23, 2009 on Friendly Fire Recordings

'The band is a perfect mix of everything from the past 40 years of popular music.' - NPR

'...the perfect soundtrack for a Sunday afternoon barbeque, or a Monday morning wake-up call.' - Esquire
