These United States Tidbits

Late last year, DC's These United States traveled to WOXY for their second Lounge Act session of the year. During the first session in the spring, they stuck their debut, while this one focused on Crimes. You can check out "Study The Moon" below and find the whole session here.

While I am talking about These United States, I recently got my hands upon another interesting track of theirs. Most of you are probably familiar with "West Won" off of Crimes, which has been all over this site and most of the internet. What most people do not know, is that they originally recorded a stripped down version of it for their debut. I'll include both below, as they make an interesting case study on evolution.

By the way, after taking a couple of well deserved months off, the boys will be returning to DC on January 17 for a special show at Sixth and I Historic Synagogue with all sorts of people. You can find out more information here.
