"Upright Behavior" by Landlady // Live at Serious Business / RedactedAV

Shot and recorded on June 11, 2014, "Upright Behavior" sets off on a journey of peaks and valleys before settling into a long rev up that builds steadily to its propulsive peak. The title track of Landlady's 2014 album, it was the first song they performed for us that same year in the Serious Business studio in SoHo, NYC.

ABOUT THE BAND:
There's a character in the New York music scene who we at [redacted] affectionately refer to as Doctor Schatz. In addition to producing and playing with a diverse range of other acts (Man Man, Zongo Junction, Father Figures, Renata Zeiguer, Japanese Breakfast, et al), he is the creative force at the center of the whirlwind of a band known as Landlady. The project's compositions are complex yet catchy, and the lyrics are crafted in such a way that they seem to aim for hopeful, Flaming Lips-style psychedelic sing-alongs. All in all, there's an intense brightness emanating from Adam in everything he does, and these songs are a direct expression of that.
