Fitz and the Tantrums’ full length “Pickin’ Up the Pieces” is out today and, to celebrate one of KCRW’s favorite local bands, here is the video for their single “Moneygrabber.” KCRW music librarian and DJ Eric J Lawrence started spinning the band back in May 2009 and it’s great to see how far they’ve come. Eric tells the story best on our Album Preview page. You can hear the new CD streaming in its entirety until September 14 here.
Check out Fitz and the Tantrums’ live performance on KCRW and photos of them performing at the Hammer Museum’s “Also I Like to Rock” series.
