Harper Blynn (formerly Pete and J) have been picking up new fans everywhere they go—including Sissy Spacek and Victoria from Twilight, aka Rachelle Lefevre, who recently Twittered from one of their shows: "Saw an amazing band tonight called Harper Blynn. They have an album dropping in May & are based in NYC. U need to check them out!" Well now's your chance, they not only stopped by our office this week to play a couple of tunes, but they've got an April residency going on at the Living Room. See them tonight (or next Wednesday), where on top of their own set they'll also play the role of backing band for Schuyler Fisk.

Below are two songs from their forthcoming David Kahne (The Strokes, Regina Spektor, Paul McCartney) produced LP, Loneliest Generation.
