Seeing The Teen Age play a recent show at Pianos was like being hugged by a warm ray of sunshine. That may sound generic or cliché, but honest to god, it was like listening to two rainbows fuck.

Catchy lyrics with West Coast hooks and easy-going beats that don’t patronize a New York mindset, The Teen Age emits a carefree energy that attracts both fellow musicians and fans that are simply there to dance. They create an atmosphere that’s evocative of how you wish your teen age years had been — nostalgic for the times we didn’t live and the memories we didn’t actually have.
