Indie Rock can be done

On April 14th my assistant Tobey Geise and I celebrated the marriage of Lesley and Johnny at a New Leaf. The couple was married in Japan the previous fall, and asked wanted to celebrate with their family in the states. They choose A New Leaf to have their intimate celebration and had a very specific vision for the night which tied largely to the music. Lesley a huge music fan worked with me on what to play and not, she wanted a very Indie Rock, no cheese, little pop and mainstream event, so I took on the gig because we shared many of the great tastes. Going into the event I was hesitant as too what would hit, how the music would effect the party, and what I found was that the music fit right into her vision. Many compliments were given about the music, my client said she loved me kissed me, and was relieved to hear her music and music she loved. Tobey and I had a great time playing music we love and usually don't get to hear. Music included: The Rapture, Modest Mouse, Fiest, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Stones, Johnny Cash, Beatles, Electric 6, Fiona Apple, Tom Waits....
