Clap Your Hands Say Yeah– HMV Ritz   // 2nd February 2012




The Ritz is putting on a few good shows this month, and this is certainly one of them! The Brooklyn based quintet make a welcome return after their self-imposed five year hiatus, with a new album in tow. Let’s hope the DIY spirit is still living strong within them!.
