If you’re an indie rock fiend like me, then let me hit you with some knowledge about Brooklyn-based group The Aviation Orange.

As the final stop of their recent tour, Akron/Family dropped their good ol’ indie sound on the hip denizens of Brooklyn. The sold-out show at the Music Hall of Williamsburg was everything one could dream of with the grouping of Akron/Family, Warpaint, and Please the Trees.
