PLAYLIST: QUIRKY FUN COCKTAIL HOUR MUSIC

I recently DJ'd the wedding of Allison (a librarian) and Matthew (a zookeeper/musician).  No, really he's a zookeeper.  Pretty awesome, right? Great, fun, down-to-earth couple.  They asked for some help with their cocktail hour: "...just keep it quirky, fun, indie, atypical....and please include "A Mighty Wind." -- Done!  

To compliment their loft-style wedding in Brooklyn, we picked out some tunes from Noah + The Whale, Vampire Weekend, They Might Be Giants, I'm From Barcelona, Kate Nash....and a few other surprises.  With guests decked out in 3-piece suits, fedoras and argyle socks galore....the cocktail hour music seemed to fit just right.
