Song for New York / Interview With Battles
Song for New York is a free, waterfront musical theater production that gets underway this weekend. And the theater critic Alisa Solomon is not just interested in the performances, but in the unruly elements involved with launching a new show.
More about Song for New York
The New York-based band Battles claims to be four guys with impressive indie-rock resumes and a mountain of electronic gear. But after hearing the chipmunk vocals and thumping grooves on their album Mirrored, you might get the impression they're actually bionic men sent from the future -- to rock. We talk with guitarist/keyboardist Ian Williams and drummer John Stanier.

I caught just a bit of the women singing during the program. They reminded me of Kate and Anna McGarrigle, and that is a very good thing.
