The 1900s performed live at Chicago's Engine Studios this morning for a special KEXP live broadcast.

Meanwhile the blog-o-sphere continues strewing flower petals and adjectives at the band's feet. Meanwhile The Onion AV Club starts off the week explaining how The 1900s are "finding new ways to weave the vocals, and slipping unsettling sentiments into its sunny melodies, taking a classic sound and confidently tilting it to a modern angle." in their review of Cold & Kind.

The band will depart Chicago for points East, playing shows in DC, two CMJ in NYC and Brooklyn, plus Philly on the way home.
