Alternative rockers Silversun Pickups played an acoustic in-store show for a big crowd at Easy Street Records tonight.

The band’s Brian Aubert and Nikki Monninger performed to celebrate the release of their new album Widow’s Weeds next week (June 7).

The band, formed in Los Angeles in 2000, was introduced by guest emcee Mark from 107.7 The End:

He also hosted an interview between band members before they met with fans upstairs:

Here are two video clips of the performance:

Upcoming in-store shows are listed on Easy Street’s website, including The Derelicts on June 7 and Duff McKagan (of Guns N’ Roses fame) on June 18.

Nikki & Brian were great! I know ESR means well, but it was disappointing to have purchased entry and then be greeted with the flooded, unregulated space. The best view I got from the experience came through another fan’s raised cell phone screen. What was the point of selling access if it would be free for anyone and everyone later? This being said, the fans were also great. Some better organization would have been appreciated, especially as even the restrooms were inaccessible.
