This Month's Guest: Neon Trees
Provo, UT band Neon Trees, this month’s featured performers on the 36th edition of the award-winning Live from Daryl’s House web show, have been one of the year’s breakout newcomers with the single, “Animal,” from their Mecury/IDJ Records debut album, Habits, after being personally picked by label-mates The Killers to be an opening act on the group’s 2008 North American tour. Vocalist/ keyboardist Tyler Glenn and drummer Elaine Bradley joined Daryl for a six-song set that included “Adult Education” and “Head Above Water,” from the 1981 album, Private Eyes. Daryl and the band also performed four songs from its debut album, including the #1 Alternative hit, “Animal,” as well as “1983,” “Love and Affection” and “Farther Down.”
Commented singer Glenn: "I’ve told all of my close friends and family that this was one of my most favorite creative musical days so far. It was a privilege to be in a room with great players, no frills and great songs. Not to mention the chance to jam with one of the seminal songwriters, Daryl Hall. I will always cherish my Live from Daryl’s House experience fondly!"
