Possessed by the spirit of giving, Fitz & The Tantrums are offering up their debut EP, Songs For A Break Up Volume 1, along with bonus tracks, as a free download exclusively on their site just in time for the holidays. The sharp-dressed band just returned from an impressive run opening for Maroon 5, wowing audiences repeatedly with their blue-eyed soul stompers. "I went to a Maroon 5 performance Wednesday night, and a Fitz & the Tantrums concert broke out," exclaimed the Peoria Journal Star.
Prior to their recent jaunt, Fitz & the Tantrums stopped at KCRW's "Morning Becomes Eclectic" for an electrifying live session. Three of those powerful tracks are included in the bonus package, along with Keenhouse's remix of "Breakin' The Chains Of Love," which transforms the song from a suave shuffling soul joint into a synth-fueled electro jam. The 10-song giveaway is available until the end of the year.
The dapper bunch will round out their eventful year in grand style with an equally debonair bunch: Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings on New Year's Eve, in Washington, D.C.
December 11 - San Diego, Calif. @ The Casbah
December 31 - Washington, D.C. @ 9:30 Club *
