Village Underground

Exciting find! Someone recently uploaded to YouTube a video of a full concert (41 minutes) that Ben Lee played back in February 2001 at Village Underground in NYC, right by Washington Square Park.

Songs include “Nothing Much Happens,” “10 Feet Tall,” “How Can That Be,” and “Unlove Letters.”

The Wreckers

The Wreckers aren’t a band anymore, but their songs are still featured on Spotify playlists like Your Favorite Coffeehouse.

Before forming Alvvays, Molly Rankin released an EP of solo songs, like “Way Home,” a country/folk song —

and toured solo, playing songs from the EP like “Mistake” —
