When the New York singer-songwriter Alfonso Velez last joined us in the studio, he played songs that reminded us of Paul Simon or Elliott Smith. But these days, Alfonso plays in a band called AV that has a brash, more electric sound. The band, which includes bassist Matt Basile, guitarist John Kengla and drummer Jamie Alegre, joins us to play songs from their new, self-titled EP in our studio.
