Bowerbirds play for La Blogotheque

Raleigh's own Bowerbirds are making waves across the nation right now and they recently filmed a "Take Away Show" with director Vincent Moon in New York.

Take Away Shows feature bands performing songs in various places usually on streets or in other public places. They are beautifully shot and sound great.

Bowerbirds performance includes four songs, "Bur Oak," "Dark Horse," "The Ticonderoga" and "In Our Talons."

"Bur Oak" was performed in the aisles of candy shop while "In Our Talons" was played while walking through Manhattan. The performances are great. Check out "In Our Talons" below and check out all the videos here.
