The New Standards

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Members of The New Standards led past lives in groups like the Suburbs, Semisonic, and Billygoat. On their latest album, "Rock and Roll," the trio's rock chops fuel unplugged and jazzy covers of songs by Elvis Costello, Britney Spears and the Clash. They join us to perform live.
