Matt and Kim with Beach Goons at The Bomb Factory
Mon Nov 11 2019 – 7:00 PM
Brooklyn duo Matt (Johnson, keyboards) and Kim (Schifino, drums), having met as students at Pratt Institute, soon began collaborating musically and were quickly recognized for their thunder-punching, melodic mix of indie punk and dance. Pitchfork described their sound as melody so happily jerky and rhythms so dangerously spastic that you can practically hear paroxysmal crowds pogo-ing madly…Johnson sings and thousands of other kids in his zip code (and others like it around the country) feel like hes describing their Saturday nights. It wasnt long before Matt and Kim went on to a string of successful album releases and rose to the top as the go-to live band for raw exuberance and dance-ready anthems.
Instructions: Delete this block when done
1) Set a featured image. The images are usually 16 x 9 widescreen type format. If you upload a square image, that is fine, but wordpress will adjust it and sometimes it will auto-crop it in a strange way (sometimes it will just show the middle of the picture, which is great for scenery but bad for people). Use the preview feature and if it’s not displaying right, use the wordpress edit image feature to crop into more of a rectangle.
2) leave the aip_event_details short code alone
3)Find a blockquote using the instructions
4) If there are tickets, set the link, otherwise delete that block
5) embed two videos, and embed a twitter feed or timeline. If you can’t find a twitter, you can delete this section or use your judgement to add a bulleted list, or a paragraph, link to band facebook, or whatever you like
