Phoenix at Non-Comm at the World Cafe Live (Dan DeLuca)

First the Susquehanna Bank Center, then Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and finally the World Cafe Live: French rockers Phoenix have been bussing up and down the New Jersey Turnpike this week in support of their new album Bankrupt!

If it was Wednesday, Thomas Mars and crew must have been at the WCL for WXPN's Non-Commvention confab of radio muckety mucks. Sandwiched between an acoustic Kurt Vile upstairs that didn't work so well due to conversational cacophony and a closing set by rumbling Link Wray-style Portland retro rockers Sallie Ford & the Sound Outside, Phoenix was the stellar attraction on an action packed evening, that also included sturm and drang folkie John Murry, bluegrass celebs Steve Martin & Edie Brickell with the Steep Canyon Rangers and pleasantly poppy 1980s funksters The Tom Tom Club.
