TAS In Session (MusicFestNW Preview): Givers

The summer festival season isn't quite over yet; MusicFestNW in Portland, Oregon takes place this week and one of the younger bands receiving some lavish attention is Lafayette, Louisiana's Givers. The band, whose debut album In Light is out now on Glassnote/Island in the States and will finally drop October 10 in the UK, will release their second single "Meantime" on October 3. Not long ago Givers came by WFUV and The Alternate Side's Studio A to chat with Claudia Marshall about their rapid rise from unknowns to festival favorites, their love of dance music and much more. Now on a fresh North American tour, Givers return to New York to play Terminal 5 on October 20.

The Alternate Side is a proud part of WFUV Public Radio from Fordham University,
