Remember Vampire Weekend? Yeah, I thought so. Well, The Harlem Shakes was the band that was pals with them before it all blew up and on tour with them when it actually did. Kind of like the band behind the band. And, The Harlem Shakes brew in the same kind of infectiously diverse musical cauldron that turned people and critics alike to ol’VW last year. But that was then and this is now — 2009, the year of the Shake. Get your ’09 started right, as The Harlem Shakes (along with fiery post-punkers Tokyo Police Club) pop, literally, into The Earl on Thursday, March 5. It is not to be missed, especially with six tall-boys of PBR. I sat down with frontman and principal songwriter Lexy Benaim in his Williamsburg-Brooklyn sublet to chew the fat about his band and their debut record Technicolor Health (out March 24), his boys Vampire Weekend and his take on life in general.
