Split 7″ record release by Food Will Win the War & The City and Horses

Text by Food Will Win The War

Food Will Win the War is committed to vinyl !!!

That’s right. We are hugely excited to announce the release of a split 7″ record with our friends from Philly, The City and Horses.

We will be celebrating the release at two officially sanctioned events. The first jollification will be on Friday, May 10th at Garage Mahal in Philadelphia. The second instance of merriment will take place next Saturday, May 11th on the rooftop of 20 Bayard Street in Brooklyn. Space on the roof is very limited, so advance arrangements are required. It’s a B.Y.O.B. event that will start with a “happy hour” at 7:00pm. After enjoying some beverages and watching the sunset, concertgoers will be treated to extended sets from Food Will Win the War + The City and Horses. The $15 price tag includes a physical copy of the record, digital download information, a one-inch food will win the war button, and admission to the aforementioned festivities. If you plan to join us (and we hope you will), please email us right away! 20bayard@foodwillwinthewar.com

In the more immediate future, we’ll be performing in the northernmost borough. This Saturday will be a most jamtastic occasion as we join our other friends from Philly, On The Water. The venue is a DIY space called Teh Olive Garden. They chose their name in an effort to convince the world that I am an inept typist. This event is B.Y.O.B. and B.Y.O.U.B.A.S. It’s by the last stop on the 2 train ($2.50) or the Wakefield stop on Metro-North ($6.25).

An extra enticement: make a day of it by joining our violinist/tour-guide-in-training Jeff Young at 3pm at Katonah Ave and E. 233rd St to explore the Woodlawn neighborhood of the Bronx/Yonkers, one of the biggest Irish enclaves in the NYC metro area and a short walk from Teh Olive Garden. You’ll saunter up Katonah Ave, pop into Van Cortlandt Park, then swagger along McLean Ave, stopping for pints and grub on the way. Let us know if you’re interested in joining the walk!
