There is always something interesting going on in New York City. This past Tuesday I got turned on to the Two Man Gentleman Band, a dandy duo of folksy musicians who happened to be performing at Superfine in DUMBO. These guys are a riot. Not only are they complete Dandies, but they are great musicians and songwriters. Coming to the stage with songs like “William Howard Taft,” “Fancy Beer,” and “Let’s Make a Sandwhich,” the inevitable knee slapping and toe tapping is surely accompanied with hearty laughs and a stupid grin permanently affixed to your face.

What really made me love these guys though was the style they played off perfectly in tune with their music and demeanor. Andy, the singer, was sporting a button up vest, bow tie, and the palm-aid side-part ubiquitous in the revival preppy movement that swept NY this past summer. His consort Fuller was ripping bass lines in a dark suit and tie, topped with a top hat and kazoo hanging from a wire around his neck. Both looked 100% natural and comfortable, and absolutely hilarious. On their website they have a photos section that is just classic too. Reminds me of the Tweed Ride bicycle group that had their first event in DC last summer (upon googling tweed ride, results came up in Philly and SF too, it’s expanding!).

So check out their album online, support the band. If you see a performance in your area definitely check them out you’ll have a great time!
